Smashing fruit is one thing, starting construction on a prototypical trestle is something else. When we originally talked about having OB come out to the museum, Phil came up with an idea. Have OB start building a trestle that will extend out about a car length from what we call 20 track. (Engine 20 used to sit up there, pretty creative huh.) Today, THANKS to the incredible efforts of many on a very cold day, the first step was taken. Come out next weekend for the next chapter.
