Saturday, September 4. 2010MILW 01984 Caboose Update - September 3, 2010Many of you are aware that Buzz Morisette has been working some time on making new windows and other repairs for this caboose. Years ago we did a fairly substantial amount of work on this car and began to run it in service. But many years of storage outdoors over our winters had caused many of the wood windows to rot, and the paintwork to look VERY tired.  Prep Work Enter the spirit of co-operation and assistance. The caboose is now inside Barn 2 for a new paint job, and we see about half of one side sanded down. Thank you Jamie Kolanowski for doing the work at this stage and for furnishing the image. |

Thanks for the update! I still don't understand why Commonwealth #5 was removed from service. Do you know why?

Ah yes, I have made such Jibs myself. If it were me, I would add in each corner an angled piece from the base to the Jib to act as sway bracing. [...]
