More IT 277 Progress

Gregg sends us another exciting set of progress photos on our Illinois Terminal combine!


After a little trim work and sanding the baggage door got primed.


Soon after it was painted.


This is on the left side of the baggage compartment. Previously stripped of paint and varnish. Some more sanding is needed on the trim above the window opening.



The finished motorman's cab door was rehung. Hardware was painted before reinstalling. The window that is open surrounds the pocket for the baggage door when it is open. We'll leave it varnished to show what the car looked like in its early days.
 

This grab iron was found by Zach in a storage car. It's now back on the car for the first time since 1958?
