Having survived Irene and the October 30th snow storm inside at the Thomaston Ct. shops of the RMNE doing restoration work, the car has been rolled out as finished for the year. still to go are the needle scaling and painting of the trucks and underframe that will wait for spring. the current restoration was started in the spring of 1999 and various factors have kept it from being completed till now including the running and maitance of other trains
That sure is purty
So now thats it painted its going outside!! It sure looks to nice to be left outside. You can put it in my back yard, I’ll take real good care of it.
That is one good-looking caboose!
