Both of the "new" Dry Gulch cars have now had couplers installed and the brakes re-installed & tested. A clearance trip was taken today to test the brakes & check clearances in the tunnels for both cars (one turned out to be several inches wider than the other). No issues emerged & the test was a success. They are now cleared for use during the summer camping program. When time permits, painting and other possible upgrades will take place.
