Jeff's SAK Pages - SAK Rebuilt!

Despite work connected with the SAK reconstruction starting on a large scale in the winter of 2005-6, it was at first entirely concentrated on the works for a new road to bypass the Hilton Road level-crossing. During the winter months nothing much else appeared to be happening and since I don't drive past the route of the SAK daily (or even weekly), I failed to notice the REAL start of the SAK rebuild work in (I think!) the early spring of 2006. However it wasn't too long before I got to hear about it, and started to film the progress with my camcorder, making this section of my SAK pages possible.

As this section is quite big, the progress reports, as well as having a title of sorts (if fully captioned), are numbered and carry the date(s) the pictures were taken so that it is easy to keep track when viewing them.

Although at some stages of the rebuild I got behind with adding new reports and even more seriously behind with the captioning of the pictures after I had put the basic (uncaptioned) reports live, the final version of each report is as fair and honest a reflection of events as I saw them during the rebuild as I can provide, even if the final versions of the captions in some reports were typed at a much later date than the pictures they describe! I haven't systematically gone back through these reports either to correct minor inconsistancies in terminology and with place names, although if anyone finds a major mistake of this kind please let me know and I'll have another look at it!

First Look At The Kincardine-Alloa Rebuild

Sunny Trip From Kincardine To Blackgrange

Having taken a sunny afternoon off work on 11th May 2006 I went for a more detailed look at the entire SAK worksite, but only made it from Kincardine to Blackgrange! Here is my SAK Progress Report 2.
