More Line Car Roof Progress

Gregg Wolfersheim continues to make rapid progress on the IT 1702....  



More progress on the linecar roof. The hole that I had to make is now occupied by the smoke jack collar. Eventually the pipe will be fitted into it.


These boards were prepared for the trolley base to sit on. Then, the boards rest on the extension base that actually sits on the roof.

 

The roof gongs are now in place. This one has a temporary shim under it while the original is being rehabbed.

The first 12 deck boards have been installed. Once everything is in place, they'll get a coat of paint over the white primer.

Several more deck boards got painted today. Once they're dry they will get installed. Another 12 are waiting for work space to get painted.
