Today at the end of a glorious week of sunny weather i was joined by John, Jonathan, Clive, Colin and Sophie, after a swift brew and a breakfast barm, we amended the power supply on the blue button call system, which is used for the barrow crossing at Bury Bolton Street Station.This was tested out to ensure all four call point buttons worked OK.
The unit was then PAT tested by Jonathan.
The six lamp heads from Rawtenstall Station were recovered from storage and the white undersides rubbed down ready for painting.
One of the lamp heads required a bit of work on some retaining screws which were fixed by applying some epoxy resin to the nuts holding the retain screws.
The fire alarm call point tests were completed and logged, it was the turn of the shop call point.
The undersides of six lamp heads were then painted white by Colin and Sophie, next week the rest of the metalwork will be painted black.
Lunch was then take in glorious sunshine outside of our workshop.
The lamp heads were drying in the warmth and once dry they were put back into storage ready for final painting next week.
A final brew was had with some of Mr. Kiplings finest cherry pies provided by Sue.
Back next week for more electrifying stories.
