Fishplates, Clipping and Bridge

Another pallet of fishplates today, getting us quite close to the bridge now – less than a pallet to go!

Tuesday’s crew also did another pallets worth, so we’re getting very fluent now.

We then moved our focus to Muckleford Creek Bridge, where this victim is this failed timber beam – failed due to end splitting (which is hard to see in the pic). All being well, late next week will see some more action here.

We also knocked over all of the clipping up! We’ve gone extremely well, and now that we’ll quite possibly never install fastclip sleepers again, we’re very quick at it!

Monday’s crew will do another pallet of plates, starting Maldon 8am or near the creek bridge from 8.30am.
