Off to work...
|

Whole the road clearing crew did their thing, the tie crew got to work doing theirs.

More ties going in
|
|
|
|
New pilot beams for #3
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The last of the new ties for this weekend. After this, the Loop Restorations Project will be largely complete.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new road is roughed out... and the mud made this a laborious project.

|
Attempting to move C&S #400
|
|
|
|
We failed. 400 is apparently very happy where she sits and has decided to stay a little longer. Ddiscussions will be on-going with her. We're confident we'll eventually convince her to come quietly.

|
|
Melting metal
|
|
|
|
The Car Shop Lead track has new fill. We're not done yet, but the day is quickly approaching when we put this track back in service.

|
RR&G #22 out on The Loop.
|

|
Air horns and diesel fumes... a perfect ending to the weekend.
