The Rocky Club was talking about restoration a few years ago, after the 25 is completed. I believe that talk has been laid to rest, some what do to with lack of interest, and the cost of restoring Car 25. As of now I know of no plans other than general upkeep. I was involved in a survey and we determined then a new boiler would be needed as well as major repairs to the frame and running gear, and a new tender wrapper
