August MR has information. The W&C stock is due to be returned in two
batches, this and next weekend. Using the fixed cranes, the refurbishment
has involved 6000 lifts of spoil out, 2000 lifts of rail out, 800 lifts of
rail in and 5000 lifts of other material in - including 1630 tonnes of
concrete in 25 kg bags.

Thanks to all for the info, I will make the trip to see these trains being
replaced after having seen some of them being removed.
Who knows, I might even bump into some people from this ng...? UKR meet,
anyone?

Nick
