Como Workday June 1 2019

The 2019 construction season got underway in Como on Saturday, over 20 volunteers from 4 states braved weather that ranged from sun, to snow, to rain, to sleet and to hail(all in about 20 minutes) for the pleasure of performing manual labor at high altitude. Three of the volunteers were nice enough to bring heavy equipment (a skid loader, a backhoe and a sawmill) allowing us to get an amazing amount of work done;

4 rail lengths of track 5 were completed. This track will be home to C&S boxcar 8027, which is scheduled to arrive in Como on Monday June 10
