Well, it's all over for the 2008 operating season. Engine NH 529 has been taken out of service and prepared for winter storage (cooling system drained, filled with antifreeze then drained again so that a small amount of antifreeze remains in a few areas that won't drain well). 2203 is inside, as is both the 25 and 45 ton GEs. Coach 5805's overhaul continues, with the rebuilding of the inner bulkhead of the south vestibule done, and outer south vestibule bulkhead is now well along. The privately owned B&O business car 907's truck overhaul is progressing near Nashua NH.
The Motor Vehicle Dept. has placed the rebuilt Cummins diesel in one of the front end loaders, and hydraulic maintenance work is now underway on the Dynahoe excavator. These vehicles are important over the winter in snow fighting duties so the volunteers can get to the shop area.
