Wet weekend still produced progress on container project
Weekend rain didn’t slow progress on container #4 project. John T. spent time preparing the roadbed for track panels to be placed in the coming weeks not only for the container but also a storage track to the right of the container. Eventually a storage track will exist on both sides of container #4 which will provide more places for our visiting trains to park and recharge electric locomotives after a day of playing.
The crew for container 4 is looking for help building track panels this coming Saturday, February 18th. The plan is to build 15 to 20 straight panels and prepare the pieces to build about 5 switches. For those considering coming this Saturday work will begin around 8:30 a.m. and will need one or two chop saws to cut nearly 400 ties for the panels being constructed. Other work around the railroad will also take place to prepare the railroad for our next club fun day in March.
