Monday, 1.8.2016. Adrian is very happy to have a short break …
… from cleaning the old paint off the Queen Mary waggon …

… before he turns the body over so that he can undertake some grinding inside.
The recent clearance of undergrowth south of the Signal Box renders a much improved view of the (now connected) cross-over.
Grinding partially complete, Adrian has lifted the waggon body on to its underframe …

… to show it off to the droves of passengers visiting the railway today!
At the end of the day, Fireman Chris prepares to hand over the Train Staff at the Signal Box.
Tuesday, 2.8.2016. Chris smooths off a bracket for an additional tie bar for pointwork.
