WW&F Fall Work Weekend Oct. 6-10

Just in case anyone is interested, Maine's WW&F Railway Museum will hold its annual Fall Work Weekend in four weeks, Oct. 6-10. If you want to have a good time and help with a variety of projects, here's your chance. And they even feed you lunch and supper each day! All skill levels are welcome. Many flights from the west and south to Manchester, NH and Augusta and Portland, ME, and plenty of hotels and motels in the area. Meet new friends and greet old ones at Sheepscot station!

Below is a list of projects planned for the weekend.

* Construction of a retaining wall for Humason Trestle south side. This is very important, we've been promising it to our bridge inspector for years.
* Construct ToM mill spur to the tree line, stone, level and tamp it. Tamp the track up the Mountain from the Spring.
* Lining crew on the mainline to align track. Need bodies for this.
* Replace the crappy Percival house doors with new, and build a ramp from the parking lot to the west side door. Rebuild the stairs to the north side door.
* #10's boiler flanging.
* Stone the woods track.
* Level and tamp the yard track leading to the turntable.
