Jim setting up to produce a missing part for a track tool .....
..... & milling a slide bar from Stanley
Ian moving a waggon that's about a foot off the way at the rarely-used end of a siding
Rerailing the other end
It's only about 6 inches to the side, but more than that down in wet slime.
Probable cause was frozen material around & on the rail lifting the wheels during shunting.
