Work Report 15th/16th September 2007
Track Manager, Peter Culley reported: "We towed the Sled for the first time under new sleepers with Matt McMahon's Dozer. After a few teething troubles we got our act together and layed 7 packs of sleepers on the Sunday. That represents 175 sleepers and is the BEST days progress to date. Now we have a lot of track pinning to do. Thanks go to Matt for providing the dozer."
