At the other end of Site good progress was made on the fast growing Platform Wall. The final facing bricks were placed on the 50-100 feet section, prior to the corbelling and base and backing blocks were laid for next 30 feet. Apologies that I didn't get a picture before the wraps went on. I will get a good shot during the week.
Finally we had welcome surprise visit from Jim Graham who originally gave us such a good start to this project. His railway knowledge and keen wit are still missed by the old hands. I will persuade him back if its last thing I do!

We, the Pway Dept, let Mr Graham visit you, from our current position just down the road at Laverton, on a very long lead!!!!!
Hopefully after tomorrow we will have the PW train another 300 feet closer to you!
Well said Nigel - you know a good 'un when you've got one!
