A clearance problem
My line passes through a natural overhang in the sandstone ledge. It seems the overhanging rock has slid down a little with all our rain, and the railmotor radiator now hits the roof.
(you can see how the sandstone is turning back to sand on the sleepers.)
I am not looking forward to lying on my back with a hammer and chisel to get some more clearance. It was OK 20 years ago, but doesn't seem to hold the same appeal now.

Re: A clearance problem
With your genius for developing rail mounted oddballs, you need to invent a rail mounted angle grinder!

How about a minidrill and some scale dynamite?

I was going to suggest an angle grinder, or better yet a Dremel type cutting/grinding disc. The question is - is there more movement to come?
