We very comfortably managed another 80 concrete sleepers today. We’re well on the way to getting this section complete.
It was all very usual and routine today, nothing too exciting or out of the ordinary.
By early afternoon we’d knocked over all the clipping up and were able to complete all of the usual Friday jobs such as tidy up, jacking and sleeper bundling.
Following the squeezing and minor dip correction (which was actually worse before hand anyhow!) It has come up looking very smart. We’re well over half way to the crest of the hill and we’re still hopeful of knocking it over this year, although this job in the warmer weather isn’t great fun.
Tomorrow’s crew will be up at Maldon, making a head start on our next project up there, meeting around the depot from 8am.
