Hello Dick Good to hear from you! The "Pony" hasn't been worked on for a while because the coach dept has been focusing on the repair and installation of windows for the Milwaukee coach 649. Once the coach is finished this late spring a group of interested volunteers will again work on installing windows in the "Pony." We need more funds to purchased eight new windows. They are very expensive at an estimate of $259 each. The project sure could use the help. Thanks for your interest! Best Regards Roger Kramer, Restoration Forman
