The last three days have been concerned with assembling and fitting the entrance steps, a job which is largely complete. I also cut the wooden finisher for the lower step from an undamaged section of the ash guard rail from the nearside. Tasks that remain are painting the sheet metalwork, fitting and painting the lino, fitting and painting the wooden lower step finisher and finally the nosings. The view below shows the wooden steps fitted, awaiting the riser panel.

Not much progress today due to work on the MW’s engine to get the idle to a reasonable rate. I did manage to paint the bottom leg of the rearward entrance pillar with grey ready for fitting tomorrow.
