Stone Loader

The basic loader structure is complete, and detailing has begun with the side shutes for loading into road trucks.
The support rods for the shutes to be added plus ladders, walkways, etc.

  



Two hopper wagons have been obtained, these need modifying and repainting, a road vehicle also acquired. More will be purchased as they are found.

A roadway has been laid to give access for trucks, this crosses the tracks and disappears behind the trees.



The filler was plastered across the tracks, then when dry, the flangeways were cleared.



The walkway and ladder has been made in brass and fitted between two legs.



The loader has now been painted and weathered, some more weathering to do, including scattered stone around the base, etc.
