As next Saturday Fen End Pit is off to Expo Narrow Gauge at Swanley this afternoon was spend checking and preparing the stock. Several couplings needed adjustment, lots of wheel cleaning but nothing serious in need of repair. I had realized I was one driver down so have also been trying to convert 'Larry the Lister driver' into 'Sidney the Simplex driver'

I took the opportunity to take a few photographs and a short clip of the Simplex 40S with the sound chip.

Having got the 40S checked I moved on to the 32/42 type.

I also checked out the drive mechanism for the Dragline and tomorrow I expect to get the boards checked out too.

Hope to see some RMWEBBER next week.
