319 Update

The weather was much milder today, and there were many people at IRM working on various projects. Just a couple of them are shown below.

I spent the day finishing the paint removal and sanding on one side of the vestibule, then started painting. Seen here is the first coat of white primer; I may choose to sand parts of it down and recoat. The interior surfaces of the door and windows are in good condition, so they won't need primer; I'll just sand lightly and repaint. I hope to have a spray painter shoot the vestibule at some point.

Lots of people were in the car shop. John Faulhaber helped by painting the 319's new saddles black.


And Max was busy installing the wiring for lights and power in the new shop extension.

And we had people painting windows for the 518, and several other projects were moving along. (L to R) Rod, Joel, Bill, unknown, Danielle, Jim F. The Museum has certainly recovered quickly from the blizzard!
