15th May 2002 We have removed all of the sheeting from all of the cars. We plan to assess what needs to be repaired. The sheeting has rusted badly in the weather but constant maintaince from the previous owner has prevented much of the water getting into the structure of the carriage. This picture shows John Lissette removing the panel steel from the sleeper car. |
