This Week's Featured Sponsorships! lms10000.com/news/f/chassis-…

We had a visit from the sponsor who has covered the cost of the electrical cubicle's refurbishment. He was massively impressed with the works but most of all the electrical work. Four switches have been stripped and reworked to free off and lubricate the centre shaft.

Pressure washing the chassis frame as part of a general cleanup ahead of its display at the EVR's Diesel Gala on 7-9 Aug. It then goes into the shed for preparatory work to be undertaken, ahead of eventually matching to the bogies.

On 7-9 August our chassis will be on display in Wirksworth station car park during the EVR's Diesel gala. See link for more details: lms10000.com/news/f/lms10000…
