Today's engine was Atlas, which ran well. There were not too many passengers, but enough to make it worthwhile running. The hot axlebox changed last week seems to be ok now.
Later on in the afternoon, the heavens opened and we packed away early, but driving no-cabbed Atlas in the pouring rain is about as much fun as you'd imagine it to be...
I also changed a sleeper. turned out to be quite rotton under the surface.

The Gogo tractor came out of the shed today to be measured and photographed for a model.

Odin's leaky radiator was finally fixed, and it is now back to full health. Here it is seen next to Druid. These two engines started out their lives looking fairly similar to each other, but over time various modifications (especially to Druid) have made them both rather unique.
Also today, the Greenbat had it's batteries topped up with de-ionised water, and some work was done on the O&K, although I'm not sure what as I wasn't paying attention.
