Endeavouring to keep the momentum going on the CRC Platform 2 build, 4 BAG Volunteers did their best to ignore the gloomy weather. Bob White sent me this report:-
Unfortunately it was too wet to lay many
blue bricks as they were so wet and the bricks would have been swimming and
staining the existing work. However, a start was made on the next section
after lunch. In addition, Paul and Keith stacked the surplus bricks
from behind the completed section. Despite the weather there was a sense
of achievement in getting the first section finished.
Hi Bill
The weather was not on our side today and we could not start
laying any bricks until about 11.00am. There were four of us, Tony and I
laid red bricks behind the top course of corbelling with Paul and Keith keeping
us supplied with mortar.
Paul took some photos and he will send them to you.
Cheers
Bob

I'm continually amazed at the dedication of GWSR volunteers. Fantastic progress at both ends of the line. Thank you all.
The regular posts detailing the work done & progress made are very informative. They keep us too far away (Abingdon in my case) to visit the station site on a regular basis up to speed with everything that's going on. MANY THANKS
John Smith
