D1013 bogie project - meeting held with SDR

An excellent meeting was held with the South Devon Railway Engineering Ltd to help clarify further costings required for D1013's bogie overhaul project (subject to NHLF funding). Items included:

• Revised costs for a set of six new axles to specification A4 T
• Costings for the dismantling of all axles and replacing the axle and final drive bearings, (once identified)
• NDT of welds and replacement of centre axle liners
• Updated costings for the supply and fitting of new tyres

Costings for the final part of this project should be clarified before the end of February 2023.
