Over the past week Joe has been preparing a new head board to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the closure of 52E Percy Main Shed.
Before fixing the boarder or letters down, they were put in place loose to assess spacing.
Joe begins priming the lettering, having already primed the backing board.
Joe since filled and sanded back the letters, numbers and boarder, Cameron applies the final coat of primer before blue spray paint will be applied.
Elsewhere in the workshop, Aaran has been fabricating a bracket for the anniversary headboard. Above he is seen forming the bracket shape to fit over a standard lamp bracket for our steam locomotives, and below, drilling some holes for fixing to the anniversary headboard.
The finished article, ready to be placed on the locomotive for our Half-Term running day.
