An additional update to our usual schedule,
Tim, Steve, Paul and Matt taking some afternoons to add the final details to the Museum and vehicles stables in the Bay.

Matt adding the operation and plate details to the Mackerel as well as the Vacuum swan neck colour.

Tim, Steve and Paul progressing with the museum, but again no shots of that until the 2nd.

Oh go on then, just a peak……..

Just realised it’s been a while since we have had a Tim’s trailer update.

Externally it’s complete. This was in time for a trip from its current location at the Mountsorrel and Rothley Community Heritage Centre to Kidderminster Town station on the Severn Valley Railway for the 40th Anniversary of the Mechanical Horse Club

Also for the first time, Tim got to haul his trailer, although using Matt’s Scarab

With the 2nd bearing down on us its time for the usual running fleet preparation.

Tim, Stuart, Josh, Phil, Cliff, Colin, John, Matt and Mark on site at Wansford, making quick work of the oiling and inspections of the running fleet.

With the fleet in order and before heading to Peterborough, Matt applied the lettering to the Octopussy CCT.

We were also able to curtail his sign-writing tendencies, which usually means anything that’ doesn’t move has the potential to be painted. So behind bars with him.

With all the necessaries taken care off we moved to Peterborough. Phil doing a superb job of tidying up in the Bay, weeding and removal of rubbish.

Stu and Josh fitting information boards to “A” boards detailing the vehicles stabled at Peterborough.

Tim once again adding the polish to the museum, including Matt’s sign writing sign.

As mentioned on our Facebook page Matt is bringing his Escort van to complement the Peak and to work out wether we could get it on the platform or not, we just went for it.

So as a reminder, busy day for the group this coming Friday. Hope to see you there.
