Hi

Work is progressing on the new home for A4 60009 Union of south Africa. As I need to free up space for the new shed I have removed one of the main fleet's depots and relocated it. This has given an opportunity to remove all the locos from Glasburgh to put down some 'concrete' for both the shed and relocated depot sheds. First layer of concrete laid and drying.

Meanwhile, back at the builders the new shed has received a couple of coats of paint on the roof and timber wall. The fitting of drainpipes and guttering is nearing completion and these too have received a couple of coats of black.

Although not quite the same as the original in that it is two road as opposed to one on the shed at Markinch I have tried to keep it pretty similar. Next task is the construction of the small office building that is at the side and internal detailing including roof lights. Still have not decided how to manufacture the vents above the door but the pilot hole has been done at one end.

I have included acouple of photos of the original at Markinch shortly before it was destroyed by fire. Bit of a mess by then!
