I hope everyone had an enjoyable 4th of July.                                     The crew working on 2612 was again very busy on this past Wednesday. Four members certainly got much accomplished. Our goal, as you well know, is to have this coach in reasonable shape to use in the Day Out w/ Thomas event and the  Four Day Labor Day event.   We are accomplishing much in  our one work day a week.  Just for those of you who forgot what the  interior looked like when we first received it on our interchange; the last picture is that of our first efforts peeling off the carpeting on the walls.

Just for comparison this is what we started with in February

                                                          Please consider joining our growing crew.   The next work session will be July 10.  We meet either by barn 3 or by barn 11 where, currently, the 2612 is located.  If you are unable to join us why not send a donation to the RI 2612 project.  That will help cover the costs of sandpaper, we use 80 grit, and spray red primer.                               Thanks     Roger
