General Blog Entries

I would like to thank all the members and friends of IRM that have contributed support over 2011.  Your time and donations are what make projects work!  That goes for the Freight Department and the Wood Shop where I spend most of my time, and for any project or activity on our campus.  There are major projects in almost every department that are close to being completed and we have every reason to expect some exciting announcements and developments in 2012.  If you have been reading these BLOG posts you know what many of them are.

THANK YOU, but the work is not done yet - we appreciate your continued support.

It may not be politically correct but it is how I was raised and part of what I am, so - -

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Buzz Morisette submitted the following images and he used PHOTO SHOP to embed caption info within each pic.  So to get the 'rest of the story', click the thumbnails (twice in sequence) to get the full screen images and read the story.  This series of images deals with getting the ENGINATOR up and running, an internal combustion engine to generate 32 volts for the car.
