Another really cold Wednesday with much snow till around but a lot got done. I set to work to make the plywood templates that will enable the handrails to be bent to the correct shapes. These took quite a bit of working out and in the process we put up the first vertical handrail inside the D end staircase.
It can just be seen on the left hand side of the staircase stringer. Jim made a start with rubbing down and in the afternoon after I'd finished the templates I fitted the two step brackets at the end of the steps.
Not a very good photos as I'd got the wrong setting on my camera but it gives the general idea. Away from the tram much is happening. The curtains to go behind the saloon seats are being made and the first parts for the bell system have been cut out by water jet cutting. All in all good progress.
