Below: Rambler basks in the evening sunshine. I am likely to be out road rolling with Rambler on Saturday. A new construction access road to the rear of the Town Park needs consolidating and rather than hire in a modern machine it was suggested we use steam!

Below: Work has started on the resurfacing of the rest of the perimeter road around the museum. This is more involved than the previous job as it also entails laying a curb between the road and tramway. Work is progressing rapidly however and soon broken springs and rattling cars will be a thing of the past – on the site anyway, all the local roads to Beamish have suffered terribly over the winter and aren’t much better than this!
