Tuesday Update

 Another brief Car Dept. report from Tuesday:

John continues to assemble door leaves for the 306.  The parts were made a couple of years ago, and are now being glued together:



Tim is working on sockets for the lights in the 1808:


New doors for the North Shore cars:


Frank Kehoe continues to fix up the clerestory window hinges for the 1808:


Phil is varnishing woodwork for the 306:


Norm and Gerry are repairing the line breaker for the 306.  This is the trolley side:


And this is the control side:


Finally, I had wanted to switch around the CA&E wood cars to put the 308 at the door, but that turned out not to be possible due to a problem with the compressor on the 36.  But I removed the other stepwell at the #2 end and dropped the pilot.  I'm hoping we can pull the truck out sometime soon and then remove the motors.
