Good news on the Class 47 front from Mangapps - its working again!!!
There was a poor contact end which meant the relays werent making when they should have. Hence plenty of TLC required to make sure they stay clean!! Its amazing how much dusty crud mixed with moisture can work its way into the smallest of places where you just cant see it properly. But how do you keep that sort of environment spotlessly clean as it must have been when manufactured. Still it is 50 years old so we all need cleaning behind the ears at some stage. It was great to feel it accelerating way if only for a moment on the short stretches where that is possible. Now the blue paint comes out so that a new coat can be applied ready for the summer season. Marvellous!!!
