On Saturday, April 13, volunteers Dwight Maxey, Kendall Crouch, Bruce Davis, Chris Pollard, Colin Mellin, Abel Erber and Paul Brown braved the great weather and accomplished a lot of little tasks. Bruce, Kendall and Abel worked on the D&RGW caboose windows and interior trim, to get things buttoned up on that project. They also worked on installing a crossing sign on our Wig Wag signal. Meanwhile, Chris and Dwight worked on some upgrades to our battery charger cables. After a quick lunch, the entire crew helped work on the Wig Wag signal operations, with some new wires being installed to the magnets inside, and adjusting the bell. There was also some more clean up work done around the yard.
I have included a few pictures of the action today, along with some pictures of some yard cleanup work performed by Bruce Davis on Thursday the 11th. Keep an eye out for more Museum activity in the coming months as we’ll have some larger projects get started, and of course our event schedule grows larger in summer months.
