It's Friday afternoon here at Crymlyn A Shop and the Manning Wardle No. 29 rebuild for the Great Western Railway Company is almost complete.
Owen the Spanners and Percy Veerance make some final adjustments to a footplate support bracket just in front of the rear wheel while Rhys ap Rhys sits on Baldrick, the Crymlyn A Shop gofer's, wheelbarrow trying to pick a winner at the "Dogs" tonight.
Meanwhile our Foreman, Dai Larfin the stores person, Baldrick, Dai the Paint, several of the girls from the local leisure centre and Parry the pipe discuss some important matters.
Apparently our Foreman is so pleased that he has given the Boyos the weekend off, without pay of course, to visit some show or other at Reading.
The locomotive will now be scrupulously cleaned before being shunted into Dai the Paints studio (paint shop).
