Resleepering

A superb day today, absolutely perfect.  Good progress on the cottage, particularly the bathroom being waterproofed and the shower-recess defined.  The bathroom is minimum sized and I was a bit worried that it wasn't going to work well, but it's going to be fine!!  Some more painting has been done, so I took a few more photos this evening.

In a previous post I mentioned that the railway line that runs beside Whistlestop, which is part of the Warwick- Stanthorpe- Wallangarra line, is being re-sleepered with approximately 30,000 new timber sleepers. Yesterday and today they were working right beside our place, with lots of action and a 'hornfest' every time they needed to cross the level crossing.  There are about 8 0r 10 machines, all with a different task, although quite what that task is isn't obvious just by looking at them.  This is a massive project, and we are so lucky that it's happening.






Here's to more of the same tomorrow!!
