Rail Car 4 looks like a blast to ride, often carries summer riders as a "second section" to daily trains.
Shown last year, it is being turned at existing end of track to be again extended during coming April and October annual work weekends.
WW&F is a nicely operated 2-foot line run, expanded and maintained mostly by very competent volunteers.
Currently in the works: adding more yard and mainline track, a car storage building similar to Friends' one in Antonito, rebuilding #9, a second Vulcan steamer soon complete, and a coming roundhouse.
Their frequent posts are fascinating.
