Broomhill S&C complete? - 20th April 2024


It has been a while since the last post, holidays etc. - Mike reports
Saturday 20th April saw a good squad meet up yet again at Broomhill, the order of the day was many track jacks and much jacking and packing of the newly installed switch and crossing (S&C) at the North end of the run-round loop, followed by Georgie's requisite
 "now tidy up the ballast boys"!   


By the time Mike took the above photos, David (been away - injury and a wee trip to New Zealand) and himself had been tasked to oil all the S&C fishplates 


and tighten to the correct torque, whilst the rest of the squad joined by Fergus after his Aviemore Section Track Inspection had started the tiring digging out the sleepers in the loop that require changing............next time.

Thanks to - Georgie, Mike, David, Richard, Steve (new chap) Ian and Iain.
