A bit more of the guard and my apprentice sweeping and his reward is a swing on the overhead gantry

Hi Dale, as requested. Front guards fitted and bolted and the old portapower in action to tension the tracks. So much easier than using the crook

Hi one and all, been a bit slow at posting lately. Here's a few shots of how I make the truck gear stick into a carrier one. Of course this may or may not be the correct way if there is one but it works for me.
