JULY 2006 WORK WEEKEND
Re-assembly of the tender

The pony truck being craned into position.

Thanks to the extra length of track, we will be able to re-wheel the engine without having to hire a crane.

Preparing to lift the tank.

Taking the strain. The tank weighs about 5 tons.

The tank being swung into position.

Lining up the holes. This took a little while.

Lowering the tank into position.

Actually it's Aaron's hat....
