    Thanks to Martin for organising another excellent day, always a pleasure working one of these, especially when I can manage an escape to the gallery to see all our hard work roll past a few times :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

    Just flipped onto the Broadway cam, to see John's progress with today's bricklaying on P2 (excellent!), only to be treated to the GW freight doing repeated runs through P1! [ATTACH] A real treat, but what was it? Photo charter, or something...
