Not sure what a ground lock is. I wonder if it aligns to a ground frame? PJW?

I had hoped that the attachment in yesterday's post had made that clear! It isn't a form of point equipment; rather it is a component that is used in conjunction with / part of a mechanism to give an additional mitigation to certain risks.

Hmm, missed that (Ref: LU Points.doc). Does anyone have a photo?

I'll try to get some more, but the doc does have included within it a pair of photographs of the groundlock (WL) mounted as part of the modified (to use air rather than hydraulic fluid) clamplock

Hi Jerry & Peter,

I have attached my collection of ground lock pictures on different types of point machines used in LUL.

That's good; don't know where you got those from, but better than any one thing I have yet found- and I work for the company. I do have some Surelock photos which I took at Whitechapel, so I'll add them tonight if I remember

Does anyone have any information on the clamp lock? Similar to that of the Surelock and HW pdf's attached? I am trying to do a points machine comparison.

Cheers

I have pdf'd a Powerpoint presentation that may be useful for the pictures, but there is little explanation I am afraid

In connection with the London Study Group, I have produced a large (both in number of pages and particularly in file size) Powerpoint presentation. It isn't yet finished yet and cit ertainly has some rough edges at the moment, however for what it's worth I have now made it available to download from http://db.tt/ucDqnf0c

For some of the slides there is some additional text, so it is worth looking at it in Notes View. Otherwise it can be run as a presentation (not that there is much animation), but beware that one of the things which is certainly unfinished at present is the division into custom sub-presentations appropriately hyperlinked so it is a bit of a monster to find way around.

As and when I have the opportunity to resolve this, I'll upload a new version that should utilise the same link above. For now though there is quite a bit of extra information compared with the pdf earlier within this thread.

It is worth noting that for the last decade there hads been at least one, often two, questions specifically on points within the module 5 qestion paper.
