I've received several phone calls and emails about the progress on RGS#1, so I thought I'd post a photo here for all to see.
Progress has been slower than expected due to running my two companies. The chassis is almost complete. I'm looking forward to the woodworking aspect of the body. If all goes well maybe I can have it ready for a test run in Silverton next summer.
This project has been a real family affair; my 10 year old son has been very involved in its building process. I’ve attached a photo of him narrowing one of the rear springs – he’s doing his part to promote Colorado rail history!
