Another extremely successful day today, with the UP leg now rerailed right up to Sawmill Rd Bridge.
What began as just a few lengths, quickly snowballed into 216m of rail, and by sheer fluke, the rail happened to end in exactly the right place just before the bridge, it’s nice to have a win sometimes.
Before we rerail across the bridge we’ll get the other leg down to the same point, which is where the gang is standing.
It’s really feeling like we’re getting somewhere now, with mere meters to go now and we’ll have all the 94lb rail in. Everything the other side is 80lb and they’ll likely be next year’s job given how much we still need to go back to do before summer.
Tuesday’s gang will be meeting at Maldon at 8am or out on site from 8.30am.
