There was some time to spare on Christmas Eve while the adults prepared for the party. As the rails and most of the deck on the restored Bridge 3 were complete, these two found that they could drive over the disused track beyond the bridge workings until stopped at a collapsed tube rail just before Bridge 5.

Xavier and Ali-mae almost reaching Bridge 5

Children visiting for the Christmas school holidays were the reason to put the light rail vehicle (i.e. modern tram) back on the rails. The Sydney trams have ten sections: end, suspended, middle, suspended, end, end, suspended, middle, suspended, end. So far we only had three sections.

So now we have 40% of a Sydney Light Rail tram.

Now the work train can park on the far side.

All the deck down and ready for painting.
