Outside Cylinders are delivered to Tyseley

2 October, 2024 - 10:30 Colin Hall

The rectification work on the outside cylinders was completed at Riley & Son (E) Ltd in September. In a first for our project, they were delivered free of charge to Tyseley on Monday 30th September by a new member and volunteer, using his own crane-equipped truck and trailer.

The transfer to Tyseley is an important step for the project, as the cylinders have to be refitted to the frames before essential frame alignment checks can be carried out. All of the cylinder valve work including design will now be carried out at Tyseley.
