The car shop was a beehive of activity on Wednesday. Probably the most active project was the Michigan Electric 28. Here Pete is repainting the door between the baggage and passenger compartments.
Norm, Fritz, and Phil were installing new ceiling panels in the baggage compartment:
And then they were glued and clamped.
Among other projects, some of the Freight Dept. guys were working on wood for the tool car.
L to R: Bill, Victor, and Bob (I believe)
Buzz showed a replacement knob for the stove in the Milwaukee Road caboose he's working on.
Steve Iversen was visiting from Oklahoma again, and here he's fighting with obstreperous PCC brake parts. I'm not sure who's winning.
And here Norm takes a break from the 28 to help:
And finally, Jon shows off a new axe he bought for the tool box in the 65, which hasn't had its full complement of wrecking tools for a long time. It needed to have the handle shortened and trimmed, but will help make the car more complete.
