Here are a few shots I took Dec. 7 at the Sumpter Valley backshop. Project leader Tom Young has really got #720 looking great. The addition of the gold and white striping is a nice touch. #100 has recently been returned to operational status with new wheels installed on the front axle. For those not aware, #100 was purchased new by SVRy in April of 1930.
