So which major engineering works were undertaken over the Christmas period?

I know there a lots of individual threads for everything but sometimes they are overwhelming and much like people who don't know what a datum plate is, if you don't know what you are looking for in the first place then you can't really be expected to find it.

In a nutshell what projects were undertaken over Xmas? Were any completed? Of ones which weren't completed were there any major steps taken forwards?

On the GEML the huge track remodelling job at Shenfield is ongoing. Will be interesting to travel through on Tuesday to see what has been achieved. The job then carries on until May.
