An early start to today's working party. With the crane in position, the cab was lifted and placed on a rail trolley.
At 10:30 the boiler arrived. All hands to the unloading of the loose components.
By 11:00 the low loader was ready for departure and the ash pan fitting gang ready to start, and after an hour's struggle the main action was about to begin.
However, this was just the start of the struggle to fit the smoke box over the saddle. At the end of the day, the boiler is back on and all the components taken to the workshop. There will be lots of work to do during the comming weeks.
