Last mentioned in June of this year, Mark Hoffman and I have made some fine progress in repainting this car. Bottomline, the vestibule which was primed in June is now painted a lovely PULLMAN GREEN!! All parts that were taken off more than a year ago are also now reattached. The Winter phase is upon us. That is surface prepping parts of the roof for painting next Spring. Please stop buy barn 3 to view the progress. Donations? .....yes, the "John" could use a few dollars. Thanks in advance for your donation directed to fund RMCLOU.
The next really big job is to locate a buffer stored outside in the material yard. Interested in lending a helping hand? See Mark or myself for an exciting afternoon of FUN at the ole train yard. Thanks..... Roger Kramer.

7009 number boards look good. Is there a way to turn a locomotive around at IRM? In case you ever had a mind to connect 7009 and 6847?
