8 May 2005. Some of the many tasks being worked on

Renewal of rotted sleepers under the Turntable Buffer Stop.

After removal of the old sleepers, the area is being dug out, ready to receive (second-hand) redwood timbers which should out last us all!!

Creating a easier access to the water tower involves building a new ladder.

Diversions from Western main line continue on Sundays during engineering works. Two First Great Western HSTs cross whilst a South West Trains 159 unit is relegated to the sidings.
