Evening All The job of the pictures in Nuneaton was that of mine. We lifted out a 150 tonne bridge that was redundant over the westcoast mainline in the early hours of Sunday morning. Originally this was supposed to be the weekend before, but engineers set the crane out in the wrong position by 11 feet. I have a couple of hundred pictures of the erection and lift on Sunday morning. Someone is welcome to have them and post them on here for all, i simply do not have the time to do anything with the project pictures anymore. If anyones up for the challenge let me know. The transport company taking out the carbody should be that of Searles from Brighton area who were subbies for Smiths of Biggleswade. Ive told them they have the job if they can guarantee getting the piece out in one. We had great issues getting it in in the first place and ended up splitting it in two. I guess if you guys say Smiths are doing it then Searles must be busy. No ones told me yet.....  
in memory of Biscuit. dearly loved RIP 28.10.08
