The loco has radically changed appearance this week. In preparation for the installation of the windows all of the apertures have been fully opened out. The cab windows were already cut, they were just tidied up, but the engine room windows were only perforated previously, leaving the blanks in place.
These are all now fully prepared and ready to take the glass.
With the internal lights shining brightly the loco shows off its new appearance below.

With the top compressor obscuring the view through the loco both no. 1 end engine room windows are seen to good effect below.

The drive end of the engine - still waiting for the main generator to return from overhaul - is seen through the newly cut window.

Napier Deltic T9 29, unique.
