With Jamie's completed sanding and re-varnishing (needing several coats, of course!), Steve Gwinnett re-attaches the train describer plates to the front of the panel.

The end result - wonderfully clean and tidy framework, ready for re-varnishing.
Jamie Brooker removes the vertical train describer plates and edging from the panel frontage, and begins the task of carefully sanding the timber framework.
With kind permission from Network Rail, 50 base units and associated fitments are recovered from the old Stoke Gifford panel at Bristol PSB by Tom Yardley; note the 'Out Of Use' lights illuminated.
Taken a mere ten days before the Grand Opening, the Swindon Panel Box plate is seen in its final position, with the home signal waiting to greet our first visitors!

Another key moment, as Laurence Stant completes the wiring-in of the final Printed Circuit Board (PCB) - a lasting testament to all those SPS members who gave up their time to solder all 350 of them!
Another key moment, as Laurence Stant completes the wiring-in of the final Printed Circuit Board (PCB) - a lasting testament to all those SPS members who gave up their time to solder all 350 of them!
The odd surprise while cleaning: behind one of the rear covers, just discernible in the dust, is the downbeat message 'We're not going anywhere'; the same certainly can't be said of SPS!
As more space becomes available at the front of the panel, Peter Woodbridge continues with the unenviable task of cleaning the panel's front and rear metal covers.
Not content with the panel covers, Peter starts cleaning away the years of dirt from the back desk, a longer-term restoration project.
