Today i split a few hours between two of the projects I got the first coat of green on the caboose and now can see where to fill/repair and add all the trim to windows and corners.
Car 57 needs the remaining 8 ceilings restored and its a miserable filthy job removing them one by one, so we tackled the whole job. Covered in soot but they are all out bar 3 first time they have been removed in 126 years.
