As has been the custom in recent years, the Barn 4 shop crews enoyed a Holiday Luncheon, this time in the Wood Shop, held promptly at Noon, December 17. It was "POT LUCK" with many good dishes volunteered - there was not a dud among them!
Anyone working at IRM on Wednesdays was welcome. This year we saw members of the Electric Car Department, the Woodshop Crew, Freight Car Department, Buildings and Grounds, The Pullman Library, The Strahorn Library, the Passenger Car Department, the Line Department, and the OFFICE STAFF. As you can see, there was quite a crowd. Line forms to the left!
And here is another shot from Dan Fenlaciki - no one seems bashful about digging in!
