Work on 401

Along with the boiler came all its fittings, injectors, gauge's, mud-hole doors, washout plugs etc. Michael is seen here using the wire wheel to clean up one of many wash out plugs from 401

With the first wheelset now inside, Michael and John carried on and started working on the next axlebox, Michael W here is removing split pins which hold the nut in place on the stud

Removing the last split pin

Michael literally putting all of his weight into loosening one of the nuts in order to split the axlebox
