More bogies and brakes

Two brakes cylinders were dismantled and inspected. Only two bolts attach the lid with the piston assembly, that was easy to remove from the cylinder. All parts were well greased up, and there was no wear or rust in the cylinder bore. After bolting back together they were passed over to the paint shop production line to receive coats of primer and undercoat courtesy of Will and Kiyran.

Meanwhile, Matt spent another day on the side of No2 end bogie, moving it closer to being ready for a coat of primer. Carl is nearing completion of the roof grilles, and fitted up a couple of the mesh covers.
