Weyerhaueser Update

The coupler and snow plow, which had to be removed for transport, have now been replaced.  Steve Panzik has located the proper bell and horn for this type of locomotive and is pursuing the creation of a replica builder’s plate.  New windows have already been installed.  Painting is still anticipated to be next summer after the Triennial.

Track Projects

Dale has upgraded the track between Bell and Crisp Yard with aluminum on plastic! Smooth Ride!!! He also replaced the ties under the diamonds coming off the turn table. 

The track between Hope and Panzik has been removed.  This will allow the replacement of contaminated ballast from the 2021 flooding.  Track will be closed North of Schubert Junction until next Spring.
