Thanks all for the support. This car never received steam heat and used stoves in each corner. I think it unwise to have flame in a car this historic so the stoves are present and piped but the doors bolted shut to prevent use. We are on a two year cycle per car as of now although I would like to accelerate the process if possible. 292 will be available for charter use until enough cars are available to run the historic trainset with 168. Thanks again and come see 292 and the 168 tender on opening day in Antonito!
Best,
Stathi
