Here are some random images I caught around the site, varied topics.

Playground

The crew of Gerry Dettlof, Ray Bellock, Dave Diamond and Henry Vincent are going over the morning instructions.  More volunteers came throughout the day to assist.  The playground area is rapidly taking shape with the nearly complete large central feature.  Today several smaller pieces were being moved in, targeted for the younger tots.  This is a terrific example of a grass roots project at IRM with member funding and and volunteers who have the attitude that almost anything can be done.

Dust Shields

Rich Witt was toiling over cleanup of the new dust shields we previously made.

Wagon Top

Victor Humphreys spends some time every clear day, weather permitting, and the progress on this classic boxcar is very apparent.

Caboose Train

After resting on Track 41 for a few days, the line up of inspected cabooses left Saturday afternoon.  It makes quite a sight and we hope the operating department can schedule some runs on this equipment.
