Someone smashed the windows out of a caboose over the weekend. Here's the article from the Pottsville Republican:

MINERSVILLE — The restoration of a steam locomotive won’t be derailed due to vandalism, the head of the project said Tuesday. Over the weekend, vandals smashed two windows on a caboose sitting with the locomotive on a siding beside the old Minersville train station. Robert E. Kimmel Jr., president of Railway Restoration Project 113, said the vandals caused about $1,000 in damage. “It’s disheartening,” he said. “All the work that goes into it for the community and the preservation and then you have this happen.”
