Jenny Cole braved the weather to serve meals from the caravan which is undergoing interior modifications & improvements. The fettlers are preparing a section of track to be used in a level crossing. Peter Culley was the team leader and the crossing preparation task and work area was selected as the safest for the prevailing conditions.
