Esteemed narrow gauge enthusiasts,
I have attached pictures of recent developments in the restoration of D&RGW 223 for your viewing pleasure. It's not every day that we see boilers and running gear flying through the air. A big thank-you goes to Wagstaff Crane, who donated these services for free. All pictures by Lee Witten.
For those that do Facebook, more pictures can be seen here: [www.facebook.com]
Remember that the Gofundme fundraiser is still open, and we'd appreciate any donations to help meet our goal of having the 223 under steam by May 2019. [www.gofundme.com]
