Tuesday, May 27. 2008CRIP 19135 Update May 24-26, 2008 It Does Not Look Like Grease Lots happening on this project over the three day holiday. Here Gwyn Stupar catches Kirk Warner with a disk of center bearing grease. The car is on on jacks for the next step.  It Goes Way Back in Here And this is the next step - reaching into the exposed cup on top of the truck to lay in that lubricant. In case you did not recognize him, that is Kirk Warner.  Borrowed Power By Monday afternoon the caboose was ready for a test drive on the main line. Here an engine couples up to the caboose in Yard 5. Jamie Kolanowski was the engineer, Warren Lloyd the conductor, and Kirk Warner the chaperone.  The Train Buzz Morrisette caught a quick snapshop as the train was ready to leave east to the end of the line. From all accounts the bearings ran cool and no defects noted.
