FYI, our carbarn (designed influenced by the input of MANY from this forum) is going up quickly. The footings have all been poured and most of the heavy steel has already been erected. The roofing and insulation should be going on next week.

When all is said and done, we will have 300 feet of covered dual gauge track, with another 120 or so uncovered, plus space in our shops.

Poor old V-C #50 has been waiting a year for the roof, but this time next year she'll be all bright and sparkly with new paint, windows, and jewelry.

Matt -

Nice building. Say, is that Mogul one of those "Cuban Sugar" engines? Somewhere around here I have a list. If I can ever find it.
