Wednesday the 31st July and the heatwave continues for another day.

Greg has got the red on the Morris grill

Then  it was crane time in the sun with rotary brushes, wire wheels, degreaser and the water spray to was it down.

                                

                                                     A few before and after shits

 

With some slack in the chain and applied lifting and pulling we managed to get the hoist chain out.

The museum coach doors needed tidying up and the veneer in the corridor had started to peel off .

Wood glue and a nailed on press solved

Doing it in stages down tbe panel

Nailed on press is lowered to the next session

Time for some darker graining on the GWR security box close to the original colour

Then time to start painting the exterior metal frames so reassembly can startèd
