M-35 Update

In case you've been worrying that Gregg has been neglecting the UP doodlebug due to his work on the IT line car, evidently you can relax.  He sends us another photo update on the M-35!


The last two windows were put back into place in the smoker compartment. We're missing some latch hardware, so I hope to get some duplicate castings made in the near future. Also, the lower wall was finally painted, as can be seen with the masking tape separating the colors.

  Jane Blackburn helped install the cast guides on the wall for the conductor's cord.



Several pieces of plywood have been cut and primed. Three are seen here next to the doodlebug. Stay tuned for their installation!
