Members' Monthly Bulletin February 2023

2 June, 2023 - 10:06 Colin Hall

Here is our progress report for February 2023. 

The mailing of our latest Warrior Magazine is expected to start on 2nd March, so this bulletin will not repeat all the detail on the subjects we normally cover in the magazine.  But since the Warrior went to press, we have now completed the first phase of the MPI testing required on chassis components for quality reasons. This is an important step - around 50 components were tested last week, using a competent third party. We are this week assessing the results with the help of our Certification Body.  

William Cook Cast Products now report that the new driving wheels are undergoing finishing work and inspection: they forecast completion in March. I also need to say that the main frame weld defect repairs that we planned to start in February have been held up by subcontractor resourcing problems. 

Thank you for your support and your interest in our project.
