Recent work on No.69

Some work on NCB No.69.

Earlier in the week the final bolt holding in one of the slide bars was removed allowing the removal of the RHS crosshead, connecting rod and slide bars. The LHS was removed prior to the engine being shunted at Embsay. The opportunity was taken to remove the protecting grease and muck from the items before being stored.

Two of four slide bars successfully removed
