Update 27/9/18. By Andy Royal with photos from Josh Brinsford.
Just a brief update this week on a few projects from Andy. Josh has sent in an excellent selection of photos from the 1940's weekend a couple of weekends ago.

Class 47 D1661: Now in the Swindon shed for external re-paint, the internal cleaning and painting tasks still need to be done.
Class 33 D6566: Was booked to work the Diesel Experience Course last Saturday with Martin and Neil in charge.
