Wednesday Gang on ET Curve


The photos below were taken yesterday at East Tanfield, courtesy of Dave Dixon:

Geoff, Dave, Bob, Bill & Nigel happily go keying
Ian moving the CS1 sleepers .....
..... so that the chairs line up .....

..... which makes the rail drop in more easily, helped by Nigel & Bob
 
Ian cutting a rail, so that Dave & Nigel can drop in the last one

Bill & Nigel connecting Sunniside to ET loop ....
.... with John & Bob doing likewise
(NB ET platform road & loop need renewing)
The realigned curve at East Tanfield requires ballasting
Digging out ballast to add an old bridge beam as a retaining rail on Houghwell Burn bridge
