23 January 2007. Just some of the work currently being undertaken!! We will welcome more volunteers. Our main working time is Sunday mornings although volunteers are on site at many other times. Do get in touch for more details and let us know what type of work interests you.

Replacement of timbers.

Attempts are being made to get the engine for the Company owned Fowler to start. Best described as 'almost' but not quite there yet with at least two cylinders working!! Possibly a fuel/air lock problem. No doubt the experts will solve the problem shortly!!

After freeing a fuel pump, away she goes!!

Running great with only an adjustment to one injector required.

Re-fitting the vacuum pump and pipework to the Ruston locomotive.

More of work completed. Water from the Engine Shed is now piped away.

Work to improve the large door in the Transfer Shed is under way to reduce draughts and enhance the ambiance.

Steam cleaning in all-weather gear.

These timbers replaced-on to the next job!!
