First time I've seen welders acually working.

thats a fantastic photograph Cumbo - did you shoot it like that or edit it up afterwards? I love the sepia effect put to good use there, and the small welder spotlights are great!

It reminds me of photos i have of the construction of central station.....

Well done!

Wee bit "off topic", but still the transport museum - they've just launched a new web site called Reel-Lives.com

Some interesting wee clips and photos.

Watson Steel is near to completing the skeleton of Zaha Hadid’s Riverside Transport Museum in Glasgow

The £74m project’s cladding has begun and it is scheduled to be completed in August 2010. BAM is the main contractor, Buro Happold is providing mechanical, electrical, structural and civil engineering services, and Capita Symonds is project manager and quantity surveyor.

That's an amazing roof structure.

I wonder if any of it will still be visible from underneath when the building is completed, probably not though.

Indeed it shall: >fly through<

Thank you CB.

It looks the business. Except the colour that is...typical Glasgow grey/silver. Meh!
