PM47079 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I like this a lot. I don't know if you can get them but going by the fuel point at my depot. There is usually a pallet of brake blocks and a pallet of sand. The sand is decanted into wide spout type cans then put into the sandboxes. The sand is offloaded from the pallet into a metal shed to keep it dry. Your depot is very very good by the way 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
