The Repair Shop
Season 5, Episode 7: Wind-Up Train
Select Source
The team takes on a wooden desk that has seen some serious swotting, a charming scrapbook charting a fantastic story and a now defunct wind up train. Steve starts off by trying to understand and then dismantle the locomotive before handing it over to Lucia for repainting and decorating. Bookbinder Chris Shaw checks out the 1950s scrapbook but notices some tears so passes it over to paper conservator Louise Drover before he starts work on repairing and restoring the rest of the scrapbook. Will Kirk then starts to work on the desk.
