Re: WW&F RR #9

Nice photo Mr. Barry!

Hi Mike,

I am well aware of the problems and delays with the 463 rebuild as I followed a good bit of right here. You're right that it's never good to sell tickets and plan for something to be done when it's old equipment thats still in pieces. I've rebuilt everything from old Ford trucks to tube radio sets and things take more time than you expect. On the railroading side, I've worked in preservation/restoration since 1985 and the same is true. In my post regarding WW&F #9 I mention that there is a plan for a 2013 steam up but nothing more. The word will go out when she's in steam. You should come back East next year to see her.

I think the locomotive will be ready on a Friday.
