Last Sleepers placed at Hazelwood.
Yesterday,Wednesday 15th Septyember, the last of the sleepers that have to be replaced to complete the upgrading of the Shottle to Duffield section were placed under Hazelwood Bridge.

We do have about another 200 sleepers which we will replace before tamping takes place but the main work is now done. 200 sleepers represents about 3 weeks work. Yesterday we changed 36 sleepers!

Best wishes,

John H-T.
