Delivery Drill

Ian taking delivery of a new drilling machine
Using the crane to offload the 4 ton device
Meanwhile, Aiden & Bill are fixing a bogie .....
..... to be pushed into place .....
..... so that Bill can load the drill .....
..... for bowling into the shed
Peter is quite pleased with the new acquisition - it can be used to drill boilers
& frames at any angle & in many more positions than a magnetic drill
Back to track - Bill, Rob & Steve splitting a 1 in 5 crossing which needs repair
Rob, Dave & Aiden barring sections apart
Ian checking Steve's bending of a blade for the reassembled A switch
Using a crow to bend slightly beyond straight, to allow for springing back
Steve & Dave replacing the straightened blade
Steve now bends a replacement section of the 1 in 5 crossing
