Hi everyone.....
Following a re-measure of the tyres on D335 with thin flanges I am allowing 335 a further outing this weekend to work diesel diagram on both Saturday and Sunday at the ELR.
The turn was originally booked for 20087 but unfortunately the 20 is stopped with electrical fault at present.
On Sunday Its intended to carry out the borescope exam on 345's engine whilst the injectors are out being refurbished. A bore scope is a small camera with an LED which allows inspection of the engine internals by putting camera down the injector pocket I am hoping I will be able to record and capture some of the footage and place on the blog page early next week for those interested.
More news soon......
Cheers
Lee
This blog is to keep all people that are interested in the engineering activities within the Class 40 Preservation Society who look after and maintain our two locomotives D335 (40135) and 345 (40145) for current and future generations to enjoy. Both our locomotives are proudly based at the East Lancashire Railway in Bury, Lancashire. The Society has just spent a great deal of money getting 40145 (345) back into working order. We still need YOUR help!!
