DRHS update

Just a short update on what we got done this year
315 has her new pilot and pilot beam installed plus most of the hardware.
After over 50 years of being frozen in one posistion the Johnson bar was feed up and works again.
New cab will be started over the winter.
we purchased a new air pump to replace the missing one and are having the other rebuilt.
Lots of little things have been worked on, things that don't show up in pictures.
Tender trucks have been serviced
New tender frame (all wood) has been finished ans is back on the trucks, most of the brake rigging is back on along with rebuilt brake cyclinder, new tank should be on sometime after new year.
We have moved water car #0470 to temporary storeage at El Cokes.
We have gotten 8 freight cars through a deal with the D&S they will stay on the property till we find our new location for the DRHS.
We are in the process with the city and D&S in getting a new location along the D&S main, hopefully we will have this done in the next few weeks.
