At last a full day at the tram due to a rapidly improving wife, (She is doing remarkably well 4 weeks after the op). Jim Stephen paul and I got a lot of things done. Jim finished off the monitor cieling planks which are now ready for the canvas waterproofing once we have got the right beading. Paul and I drilled the first of the lower rubbing rails and dry fixed one of the waist rails. Then due to blunted drills I turned to fixing the B end Platform planks. 42 2" 12's later this was done and 107 looks a little better. Jim started to fettle the offisde moulding for the D end platform. Stephen started to sort out the seat frames and we managed a trial assembly of the first on (only 27 more to go). Using a few offcuts of seat latt we tested this and it looked good. All in all a satisffactory days work. Tomorrow it's off to Batley with a drawing to get 12 new brackets cut for the canopy bends and staircase landings. yet more metal being cut.
