Progress made on container track project during our Saturday workday
The day started out a little cold but quickly warmed up as the Saturday work crew began arriving. The crew consisted of Norm, Gene, Robby, Rick, Thomas, David E., and Dave L. Most of the crew spent the first few hours collecting already built track panels from around the railroad that will be used for the container #4 project along with doing some track repairs in the east loop. The track crew also rebuilt a switch that came from the late Charlie Glass home railroad, thank you to John Tucker for donating the track to the club, allowing the legacy of Charlie to continue at our railroad. Dave L. hung another bracket for the second signal head which puts us a step closer to our first permanent set of signal heads. The track crew pulled out a switch from the steaming siding and reinstalled it for the container track.
Coming up for the club is our second “Almost Monthly Club Fun Day” on Saturday, March 4th. Weather permitting it will be a fun time to dust things off and come out and enjoy the railroad. Run trains or do work around the railroad it is member day around the railroad. Don’t forget to invite friends and family to enjoy the day with you.
