A report from the BAG Gang who were brave (foolish!) enough to work today.
A report from Jo:-
In fact,
the main purpose of the day, rain or no, was to receive Fairview and a delivery
of concrete blocks, together with a palette of 400 corbelling bricks. These
were off loaded, put on the Pway trolley and taken down to the site. Together
with the remaining concrete blocks at the work site, we spread these out along
the next stretch, ready for the students from Gloucester College.
A report from Jo:-
Hi Bill,
Five people
turned up for CRC today, but rain stopped play. We knew that this was likely,
but thought we’d give it a go, and if the rain was indeed persistent, we would
have a ‘shed day’ with tea and biscuits, and lots of interesting things to discuss.

After this,
an extended tea break with damp biscuits. There was a hope we might lay some
corbelling bricks once the weather got brighter, but by one o’clock there were
still angry squalls shooting along the Cotswold edge, and we decided to call it
a day.
We shall
try some brick laying at Broadway on Wednesday instead !
Best
regards,
Jo

Are there any updates on the bridge funding progress? Is there a plan of action to get the bridges fixed? Like first one on from the railhead, or working from the other end with the bridge from broadway
I would imagine the bridge work will be put out for tender shortly. The decision as to where to start can then be made.
How many more slabs will be required to finish the complete job, including the platform sections yet to be built?
Graham
