Thank You, Gentlemen

Yes, Linn, that is what this is all about - getting back out in the shop. I'm not ready for a rocking chair - I will continue bulding boilers for live steam locomotives. I am deeply involved in the construction of 2 1/2" scale RGS 20's, and will spend more time on Pere Marquette 1225. I will maintain my qualification as an engineer at the Huck, and may get involved in other full size locomotve projects.
I was the man in charge at the Huckleberry for over sixteen years - it's someone else's turn. Paul Dalleska has been selected as the new Railroad Shop Supervisor, and I'm sure he'll do a fine job.
