Arron,
The Western Railway Museum shop is also overhauling the Sacramento Northern #63.

Although not moving as fast as the Key #271; the shop just got a pile of suspension parts for the Birney truck.

The car ran local service in Chico, CA until 1947, when it went to the Bay Area Electric Railroad Association. In about 1962, it was the first car to move at what became the Western Railway Museum.

Thanks for keeping an eye on the restoration projects.

The Progress Reports section of the HeritageRail Alliance online magazine is back after almost a year's absence. It's bigger than ever with about 400 active restorations and major capital projects listed. View it at https://heritagerail.org/projects-in-progress/.

So far it's just a list of active projects. I'll be adding photos and links to online updates, if those exist.

My thanks to the RyPN.org readers who helped update it. That will be a continual effort as projects are completed and new ones start. There's an update button on the page, or post it here on RyPN, or email me at aaronmona@aol.com.

Dynamic Railroad Preservation, owners of two Amtrak locomotives, now at the Nevada State Railroad Museum, Boulder City has operated their SDP 40 F, Amtrak 644/ATSF 6976 for the first time in 8 years last week. It made several trips to Railroad Pass on our regular tourist train with the museum's GP-30, UP 844.

They also have Amtrak F-40 231, awaiting work to return it too to operation.
