No.9 Siding Project
One of the tasks allocated for Civil's Week 2003 was to build a new siding into the former Civil Engineering Shed. This was to make new space for Carriage and Wagon repairs. There were already two sidings into the shed (Nos 5 and 6 Roads) and another was planned for use during the restoration of wagons and small coaches.

This is No.8 Road, long used for storing parts of NG15 No. 120 during its lengthy restoration. No more! The loco was moved to more suitable storage position near the R.E.D. Shed (the grey building in the distance). The siding is shown here before the new No.9 Road turnout was installed. The next photo shows it from the opposite viewpoint. Rick Beton | |
