We have been busy for the greater part of the summer removing the cab and other parts, this Saturday 8/20/05 we will be lifting the locomotive off the drivers so they can be gone over at the D&S shop, they hope to have them finished by Oct.With the drivers and pilot wheels out we can do a frame and spring rigging check. then we hope to pull both pistons so they can get inspected.
Watch our web page at www.drhs315.org for futher updates, hopefully she will run for Railfest and the 2006 NG covention next year.
