A brief update showing some of the work that was done at Como today laying track on the mainline and down to the roundhouse.
Track in existence at 9:30am.
Almost to the roundhouse. The track stopped here for today until the concrete work on the pit is completed. Concrete work on the pit scheduled to begin on Monday.
Looking back up the track toward the Depot and Hotel.
Mainline on the right and track to the roundhouse on the left.
It is hard to express in words how incredible it was to be standing in the Como yard surrounded by coal and cinders from 80 years ago with newly laid track that will soon host a steam locomotive once again. What a pleasure it was to be part of this restoration work. Can't wait to get back out there next week to do it again.
