Another Day at Sunniside

Brian preparing to refit AW2's air compressor
Colin, Martin & Barry placing sleepers in the temporary gap
(the gap enables the digger to pass through to tidy behind the wall)
Martin working on the hole .....
..... to insert a sleeper in a gap
Cameron digging to resleeper the platform edge ....
..... before Dennis, Steve & Martin move in
Dennis & Ian adding old small ballast to the platform
Compacting the surface
Colin & Barry tidying the back of the wall
Clearing surplus sleepers
Looking south along the platform
Looking north along the platform - still more surfacing & tidying to do

This is looking great!

When do you plan to reopen this section?

I understand that trains will run to Sunniside, and stop at Causey, from Easter.

Looks great, but it would've looked better with the chair indents facing the platform

We're using some fairly poor quality sleepers, with lots of holes, splits etc, so putting the better looking face towards the platform because it'll look that way longer.
