The "Big Dig" has begun- Impromptu workday recap from Saturday, May 8th
One thing that is constant is change when you are planning things. This past weekend we had planned on working on getting the next member container area ready, which we did, however delivery of the container was delayed because of the quality of the container available was not as good as we had hoped. While continue to search for the next container we pivoted on Friday and put together a crew for Saturday impromptu workday and started the “Big Dig” portion of the passenger line project. The crew consisted of Ben, “Bob”, Gene, “Bob2”, Norm, Robby, Wes, and John. Scott was also at the site working on installing some additional electrical in the grey container. About 90% of everything was completed but we are looking for any individuals who are available this week to install the rebar so we can schedule a concrete truck to pour on Saturday, May 15th. A little late on my part but Norm will be heading out with a few people on Tuesday, May 11th at 8;30 a.m. to work on the rebar. If you are able to help I’m sure they’d take what ever you can offer.
Assuming everything goes well, and the weather cooperates we will need extra help on Saturday, May 15th as about 8 or 9 yards of concrete is delivered and poured. If for some reason we are not able to pour on Saturday, we will begin grading work from west side of the new crossing towards the station area in preparation of track to be installed in a future workday. If you are available on Saturday, May 24th please arrive around 8:30 a.m. ahead of the concrete truck to help finalize any last-minute details before the pour which will happen around 10 a.m.(‘ish).
As was mentioned earlier Scott worked in the grey container installing more conduit so the lights can be turned on and off from either end of the container.
