As one of RRRG's electrical officers I will write about my specialist field as well as general reports of work on site.

Work party report 12th November 2023

​Dave Rolfe, Jay Hirst, Mark Burrows, Richard Dale and I were on site today. Jay and Mark were gluing rubber strips behind where the air filters will sit around 50030 to prevent them rattling. Dave continued cleaning and test-fitting various sections of air pipes on and around the brake frame. He has also refitted the four brake valves to the brake frame, three air tanks above the walkway past the electrical cubicle, and has completed painting around that area. Richard and I carried on testing the internal lighting circuits, finding everything okay apart from the tail lights at No1 end, which we got no continuity readings from. This will require further investigation. Photos courtesy Jay Hirst (cover photo shows refitted brake frame valves).
