Chicago sports fans surely want to send Green Bay packing this weekend, but here in the Electric Car Shop we have our own little green and yellow piece of Wisconsin, Green Bay & Western steam railroad coach 109 - and our intrepid cub reporter Gregg Wolfersheim is on the sidelines with the latest. Gregg, over to you!
Another step in creating an end beam for the Green Bay car is pictured here. Some relief holes were bored into the back and bottom of the oak. These are where rivet heads will have room to reside in.
The south side of the car is finally in green. Only the trim needs to be added over the arched windows.
The north side was painted around the window openings and along the sill. Soon, most of the finished sash will be put back in place.
The east end was sanded some more, and then painting commenced.
The upper part of the end is now covered.
And, now the lower area is done.

What kind od seats will go into the car? TM IRM Member
As I understand it, Ted, the car will be used for various purposes such as public displays, meetings, training, and so on, so there probably won't be any permanent seating. But I could be wrong. If not, I have two nice plush armchairs currently in the 321 that I'd be glad to donate.
