Tuesday was another busy day at IRM. The Museum Showcase Weekend, previously known as Members' Day, requires lots of preparation. Here we see just a part of the bus collection lined up.
Meanwhile, back in Barn 4, work continues on several current projects.
Here Tim is fitting new wood to the east platform of the 1268.
And great progress is being made on the interior of the 306.
John is attaching the newly polished brackets to the seats.
Work continues on installing the control equipment.
And in the shop, the arm rests are being repainted prior to installation.
I hadn't run into them for a while, but Steve Smunt and Paul Hough have continued to work on the interior of the 277, and they are doing excellent work.
Here Steve is stripping one of the window shade boxes for refinishing.
The north side of the main compartment is getting close to completion, and it looks great.
Finally, I had a few things to fix up on the 309. For instance, a couple of burned-out bulbs had to be replaced.
The 309 and 319 will be in service this Saturday, along with just about everything else that we can fit onto the railroad at one time. If you can, stop in and say hello!
