Morning shunting and line inspection

Leaving the shed and heading into the mist on a groggy morning

Over on the carriages, second man Paul couples up whilst the driver & guard discuss a shunt in order to swap the CL and SLO

The train was pulled into the platform where the CL was chocked and uncoupled

The Brake and SLO were pulled back, points changed and then propelled through the loop

CL stabled at the end of the platform

Propelling the train through the loop

Heading up to the top end of the North headshunt where the SLO was stabled

After leaving the SLO in the headshunt, the Brake was brought back through the loop and back onto the CL

After stabling the train in Middle Engine Lane platform, 08915 and crew headed down on the morning line inspection, here Paul is testing/inspecting Percy Main groundframe

Heading back up to Middle Engine Lane after running through the loop and testing Percy Main South points
