It’s the beginning of April and this can mean only one thing for us – beginning of the repairs of the tracks in the Shed. Thanks to the grant by the City Council of Skierniewice, we have started the complete overhaul of tracks № 7 and № 8 in front of the roundhouse. During the first weeks, we have removed the rails, concrete crossing plates and prepared an access route for the backhoe loader aiding in the works. Due to the fast-growing prices of materials we have already stock up with a fresh ballast that will be required later during the works.
