External renovation of the North Signal box at Boat over 31May and 1June

By Colin Frost 

 

Taking advantage of the sunny weather, Ray and Colin spent a further two days catching up on work that that had been postponed due to the previously inclement weather of a last couple of weeks ago.          

 

The final colours have been applied to staircase and work has progressed painting the token stand, which has been in bare wood since its construction probably over 5 years ago.

 

Further sections of the rotten moulding have also been cut out and replaced, but for the time being this is about all that can be done, until the scaffold has been erect, which is scheduled to be in place from 17June.

 

More next time..........
