After many weeks away from this task, we’re back into it. We certainly won’t be back with quite the same intensity we were, however we’ve taken a gentle start into it, preparing a very good number of fastclip type sleepers ready for installation next week.
It’s a little hard to actually show what we did today, however in essence we’ve check many hundred sleepers for completeness and attended to a few hundred that needed bits adding, taking those parts from other sleepers which aren’t usable or had enough other bits missing. It was a fairly thankless job but we got very proficient at it as we went on.
Tomorrow’s work is looking wet, the forecast is indicating rain all day, we’ll still be out there doing more preparation with the diggers, however if you do choose to join us, be prepared for wet weather – we’ll be out on site (old tip crossing near Bendigo Road) from about 8.30am.
