47105 update

The long refurbishment work being undertaken on 47105 is progressing well inside the loco with a huge amount of effort being put into overhauling components and repainting. Dave Moorcraft is seen here working on some internal paneling. A lot of rotten steel work has been cut out and major repairs to the engine room floor area are being undertaken.
