Work in Progress 21 July
With apologies for lateness! Another successful operating day with AXE and her 4 carriages performing well as the visitors and coach parties came and went.
For the work party today tasks included electrical work in the shed, more progress inside the ex MoD Brake Van - now nearing completion, and attention to the stored right-hand turnout at Killington Lane currently being regauged.
SID was back in traffic earlier this week but required further adjustments to one of the washout plugs after her long layoff .

1. Outside the shed SID's boiler was drained ready for the engineers to undertake the necessary repairs.
2. Further derusting and repainting of the up platform railings was carried out today. The end panel receives a top gloss coat whilst the second end one (cleaned today) is in primer. Only one more panel to do now along this end of the platform........
One of the unsung heroes at Woody Bay is undoubtedly Frank Daff who has been looking after the grounds and gardens since our purchase of the station back in 1995.
3. Frank mowing the grass on the down platform - in the evening after the visitors have all departed.
