Our small but dedicated team of volunteers will be at Bury all next week and working on a number of jobs which form part of the planned maintenance work which comprises a B exam. Over the coming weeks and months these jobs will be addressed and 56006 will have received a B exam.
We are working to the EWS VMOI document and it is interesting to recall that under BR or EWS such an exam would have taken less than a week on depot.
The timing is not by chance either as the work will ensure 56006 is fit and able to perform it’s booked duties this coming Saturday when it will work the diesel turn in top and tail mode with the fostered ETH loco.
