    Apologies that due to a manic few weeks chez Big Stu, I have missed several updates (and work sessions!), so here is a bumper edition :) I'll just use the website links rather than FB as well...there's been a lot of painting!

    Matt continuing to paint of all the Scammell vehicles in to BR liveries

    Signwriting the Banana Van and repairs to Tim's Brake Van followed by a meeting to discuss the Overton project on the previous weekend, and then a Freight Driving Experience with a difference - running alongside the normal Saturday passenger service while being hauled by resident Class 45 Peak 45041 'Royal Tank Regiment'

    So have all the uprights that were going to be for some sort of shed (?) now gone?

    Half (nine) have been taken down and temporarily stored elsewhere on site (the shed was a long stalled private project, which doesn't fit the goods yard plan, so we have carefully dismantled it in order that the owner can reuse it elsewhere). There needs to be some major reorganization at the back of the site to deal with the other row of nine (possibly not until the track is slewed across and we can get the TASC machine in to them, or have a telehandler on site).
