    Returning to Maam cross-the site was being made ready for its first customers, Some gravel was distributed along the goods siding platform beside coach 2421-the office building will be the next project on the to do list. Another side on ballast plough van was painted with primer along with some other under frame details. Preparations were made to install the Maam cross station name board on the up Galway platform. Finally toilet facilities were reinstated in the Mk3 sleeper coach.
