Early D&RG RW STATION BENCH

A friend of mine that lives out in Narrow Gauge Country recently contacted me with a Station Waiting Bench that he found at an Estate Sale. The Cast Iron Portions have D&RG RW cast in four locations on them. The last two photos are of the as found condition. He asked me If I would like it, Of Course I said heck yeah. The wood boards were obviously replaced with cheap lumber, there were multiple layers of paint. We cleaned the metal to find the original paint was a dark or hunter green. We found some old Barn Planks with great old grain to them, and basically rebuilt the bench to at least what we think it was in the 1890's. Thought the group may like to see it. Jim
