Paul tackles the shelving move, cleaning & tidying our stocks; this will help allow the panel to be moved backwards to its final position in due course -
More works outside give definition to the entrance path; note the completed front window -
Inside the panel room, more electrics have been installed, which will control panel power. -
...with the front doors now in place & operational...if only we could change our habit & not keep walking to the back door! -
The restoration, aided by Network Rail volunteers, has greatly improved the appearance of the site & the access to the signalling building... -
Outside, plenty of progress has been made restoring the air-raid shelter (the panel being behind the wall to the right) -

With electronics work pushed on, time for a good tidy-up! Peter cleans while Paul tightens the supporting framework post-panel move forward -
With cleaning done, Peter seals the remaining concrete floor space that was under the panel, while Paul reattaches 8-core cables to repaired circuit boards...watch out for that wet floor behind you Paul! -
Just a little bit of sealing remaining at the front of the panel, to be completed the following evening...then a careful panel move backwards remains -
