Colin Green, Andie Shaw, Stuart Gray and Alisdair Morgan came down to Eastleigh to cut up the old Alstom training vehicle. I managed to get 2 days off work so I could lend a hand. It was an interesting couple of days even though the weather was appalling. Was also great to see Alasdairs truck in action too, what a piece of kit!
