 It’s in the title, steady progress.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
13326, I added the final touches to the roof repair.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Bob and Steve made such rapid progress with the door Z sections, we all agreed it was panel time and so once again it was all over, that’s all four now fitted. All we need to do now is a final measure up with the doorfit team and full welding can take place. I understand next week Bob and Steve will be doing the centre upper section.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

This was just prior to fitting, making sure the radiused Z section was exactly where it should be.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

We use 3 wood jigs to get the correct measurement from top to bottom. The Z sections have a tendency to be a bit curved, so by anchoring the whole thing before welding makes the job so much easier.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

…..and so to other teams, Simon busy as always.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

David and Geoff preparing (not sure what) for the power saw.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

1675, is still giving us plenty of work, here Gerry is attending to more window work.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Chris is removing the guttering, we have found a small area of corrosion which needs to be dealt with above the window …… better to do it now.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Back in the workshop, Ian and Stuart are swapping a refurbed brake cylinder for another which requires an overhaul.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Dave is doing more cleaning ready for paint on the GW\/SR van ….. I do believe thats sunlight!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Rex has been engrossed with the generator mount for 1675, and here is fine tuning another bracket.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

A collective photo of the upholstery team all far too busy to look at the camera.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

These are the results, an ever increasing amount of finished seats and backs for the Dean Forest Railway.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Finally a view of the workshop from 13326.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Have a great w\/end, we will be back next week.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Many thanks as always to Gerry for the photos.<\/p>\n
