Crossheads

More crosshead replacement today, this time on pier 8.

It was all done in largely the same style as on Tuesday, however improved by the use of a spreader bar above the bridge, rather than just chains.

There’s very little to go, with just 4 bolts to drill and install tomorrow.

However, given tomorrow’s hot forecast, it’ll be very much a finished by lunch affair, if not sooner. Meeting at Maldon at 7.45am to collect up the tools for the job, then down to the bridge site around 8.15am.
