Chris McBride of VMT has been hard at work during September sandblasting and priming the 2760 in Riverside Park. To my regret, it appears the sponsors did not choose to have the poorly-fabricated and inauthentic replacement boiler jacket the locomotive is currently wearing removed; I was hoping they would take it away and blast and paint the bare shell. However, I don't mean to quibble too much--this engine needed help and I'm very grateful for what she's getting from the Lynchburg Kiwanis.
