In Memoriam John Nelligan

It is with deep regret that we report the death of John Nelligan.  John died in his sleep on Monday after a long battle with cancer.  For many years he was one of the Wednesday stalwarts, and most recently put in a great deal of effort and expertise on rewiring the Charles City Western locomotive #300.  It's very unfortunate that he did not live to see it finished and operational.  His friendliness, helpfulness, good humor, and energetic contributions to the Museum will be sorely missed.
