Matt,
So the car is a good pattern, and the iron is salvagable, but it isn't pristine by any means. If it is taken out though, make sure to keep all the wood for individual measurements and stuff. The set of trucks that we could use are under the stockcar in Prairie City, if we get a few replica sets of those they go under all the box, flat, gondola, and even a few stockcars. The stockcar trucks are under that one we use as a sign, those need to be replicated also, then we'll have appropriate trucks for all our cars. Sound like that land owner is a pretty easy going person, I hope they let us get the stuff back. By the way, did you ever figure out what that piece of metal we found on the Curry Branch? Didn't we think it was a coupler pocket or something?
Thanks Again, Taylor
