Does anyone know of plans to do any NEW restoration projects in 2018? I know of a few.
1) WNYRyHS plans to finish up the restoration of ALCO HH660 # 43 (Buffalo Creek)
2) The WNYRy HS also plans to begin work on NYC FA-2 # 1102 in 2018.

There are a few others which I know are on-going but don't have details of work schedules for this year. Can anyone add anything?

CNY NRHS is going to try and raise funds to repaint ALCO #5 but I’m not sure if it will get painted in 18 or not. Depends on what it costs to paint it.
