It has been almost too hot to work outside these last couple of days - especially with sheet metal cladding panels which heat up alarmingly in the sun. Nonetheless, progress is being made and this morning I shall be fitting the very last of the first batch of panels - a bit tricky because of a drainage pipe that has to be allowed for.
We are then left with black spaces awaiting accurate measurement - today's #1 objective if the thunderstorms hold off. Meanwhile a few random pictures which tell their own story really. What has been astonishing recently are the occasional perfectly clear blue skies - almost never seen since the invention of the jet engine.
The former up-line head shunt buffers from Settle station which fell off the back of a Network Rail lorry in our direction now provide an interesting and sunny sitting area.
The difference in roof levels between Terminal 1 above and Terminal 2 below can be seen here. The steps are also recycling in action - they were rescued from Settle signal box when its outside stairs were replaced some years ago.
