SVRR Volunteers 1987

It is always fun to flash back and see photos with some of the people that have made SVRR a great place to volunteer over the years. The shot taken by Irene Masters in 1987 was probably primarily to catch her husband, the late Steve Masters with their baby Josh who are on the platform of SVRy caboose #5. So, who is that brakeman? Today, he is SVRR's vice president and none other than Eric Wunz. I should mention how SVRR has long been a family oriented place. Irene also helped out running the depot back in the day. For back drop to those not familiar, the structure on the right is the water tank house which had to wait quite a few years before being craned into place over the water tank. It was recovered out near Bates. We can see the distant McEwen depot beyond. The scan is from the SVRR Archive.
