Currently an ex-Port of Bristol wagon is in the shed being renovated and will represent a local Private Owner wagon when complete. The chassis is in course of painting (John is wielding a paintbrush to prove this!), whilst the springs are currently in bits.

To maintain the grounds a new (to us) roller has been acquired. Some work to a bent drawbar is required.
