All,
I am glad there is such interest in #7. I am happy to tell everyone that the Shay restoration is progressing nicely. Our plans are to have it operate at our Labor Day Weekend Steam & Power show 2006; this will be our 50th anniversary.
I see that there is a lot of emotion about this locomotive, I invite everyone to donate to this cause. We will send you a photo print of her 1929 builder's photo with a $100.00 donation, ($50.00 if you are a member). OR perhaps you would like to donate your time....
Thank you, and we invite everyone to the museum Labor Day Weekend to see #7 stretch her legs for the first time since 1985.
Jerry, thanks for sticking up for us; your builder's photo is free.
Please send checks to:
LaPorte County Historical Steam Society
1362 East 1000N
LaPorte, IN 46350-8646
Thank you,
Ted Rita
General Manager.
