Altnabreac

At the end of October 2008 we took on a job at Altnabreac, in the highlands of Scotland on what turned out to be some very indifferent weather conditions.

Despite the conditions we removed 1½ miles of Bullhead Rail before installing 3 miles of CWR in an 80 hour period.

The work was successfully completed on four midweek night shifts


Heathrow Tunnel

This was all done within 2 x 12 hour shifts, and was finished ahead of schedule.
