Default Bogie Fever......

The wheels from Hugh arrived a few weeks ago and have now been cleaned and painted.

Bearings have all been completely cleaned of 70 years of petrified grease to reveal very few issues. I have a good supply of bearings and so picked out the best ones before re-packing them. Modern seals have replaced the old cork seals

New wheels installed on a rebuilt bogie, might have the rest fitted by end of the weekend. Booyeh - progress

Looking forward to picking the engine up from the machine shop next week.
