Today ended up being surprisingly successful, with a further 320m of 80lb rail installed, taking us from Boundary Trk to the next curve along the UP leg.
Unfortunately, there are a few pics, but for some technical reason following an update of an app, it’s not allowing photos to upload.
Besides completing that rerailing, we’ve also made a good head start on Thursday’s work, with the spikes now removed in the down leg also.
Friday’s gang managed to prepare and distribute a very good number of fishplates, allowing today to flow as smoothly as it did. Unfortunately, it really does all come down to the preparation.
Thursday’s crew will meet at Maldon at 8am or out at Boundary Track from 8.30am.
