At Beginning of Today

The work continues on the Dover Strait lettering.  Barely had the other side been completed than the car was pulled from the barn and turned on the wye, about 3 hours after the last paint was applied last Sunday.  So we start on the second side with a large crew.  Here you see masking of the two stripes in progress and in the distance, James Faulhaber is sanding out the area for the stripe.
