In April a lot of work has gone into the platform works at Boat of Garten
and John above in all over orange did much of it! Assisted by David and Bruce (who took the photo) Bruce said the pea shingle was about the right size of ballast for him, as it was his Birthday and he bought us cake we let him off. Mike and Angus laid slabs for the wheelie bins below the footbridge. Fergus and I did the never ending job of oiling point slide chairs in the morning.
Georgie used the Road Rail machine to gently place old concrete sleepers to create a cheap retaining wall to stop debris
falling onto last years new Signalling bench, the rest of the squad had to use shovels, grapes and bars to good effect.
Thanks to all that attended.
This was passing traffic on 25th April - day two of a Photographers' Charter, please note that our PWay Messvan was painted specially for the occasion, it does look better than the undercoat green on one side gray on the other, painted by Andy McClintock many years ago as a temporary measure!
I finished spreading the ballast on the headshunt but suspect not up to Geogie's standard!
