A productive couple of days in Kidderminster Diesel Depot saw the cab roof craned off and work commenced on stripping out old metal work. The welder can now progress with the major cab refurbishment replacing all the very corroded existing structural pillars and panelling


Meanwhile underneath the locomotive some less than co-operative traction motor cables were disconnected ready for the removal and replacement of two motors later in the summer once the refurbished replacements have been delivered.
