An extra PWay day was arranged for Friday and thankfully a big squad responded.
Location - Broomhill Loop, task - install Trap Switch.
Beds dug out, fishplates removed and not least the notoriously difficult to remove elastic spikes (thanks to Fergus)
Sleepers/rail removed (by machine) bed lowered by an inch
to accommodate thicker timbers, some of the squad were detailed to retrieve all scrap materials from the North end of Loop.
Meanwhile Mike and Ian (above) filled with concrete, their previously constructed shuttering on the four legs of the watertower at Boat of Garten.

Saturday saw a smaller squad continue in warmer weather
Above John on rail drill and Andrew exercising!
The finished product, fishplate securing it Out Of Use, until such time as through running achieved beyond Broomhill and it would effectively become a siding (S&T would need to connect it all up and obviously move the Stop board!)
Thanks to Mike, Michael, Roddy, Angus, Martin, John, Andrew, Iain and special mention to Fergus, Ian and myself who survived two consecutive days under Georgie's leadership.
