Little jobs on ACC5

In an earlier post, Ashington No.5s mechanical lubricator (feeds the axleboxes) had been removed for cleaning and repair. Volunteer George has had a closer inspection and found a fibre washer on the drain plugs had split, which was causing the leaks, this has been renewed with new copper washers. Its also had a thorough clean inside and out

Another of George's jobs, re-pinning the reverser levers trigger as the old pins were very worn, causing the trigger to be very loose on the lever
