If you go down to the woods today…
you’ll find Coops Group hard at work supporting Quattro Plant with video of their work alongside the Dean Forest Heritage Railway.
Quattro Plant were working alongside the Dean Forest Heritage Railway team this week, helping them get the track at Parkend Station prepped and ready for winter - just in time for the Santa Special Steam train!
Our team spent two days working closely with Trevor Hartnett and Station Manager Granville Kestell,,filming the cleaning out catch pits and reballasting, leaving the heritage railway in tip-top condition for winter.
Our team managed to get footage of Quattro’s specialist vacuum excavation team make short work of the catch pit cleaning, using the unique Mad Vax vacuum excavation system.
On day two our team filmed the reballasting of the line, following the Quattro ballast undercutter and selection of core machines. Network Rail then joined the team, finishing the job with their tamper.
