All, The WW&F Railway Museum's quarterly progress update is now available on the website. The photo for the quarter isn't the greatest, hopefully there's a good one on my two rolls of film waiting development. In addition I've made a few minor changes elsewhere on the site. WW&F Railway Museum

James, Glad to hear that the work is progressing! With the steam engine out of service are there rides being given with the Diesel #52? That water tank will be a needed addition to the facilities! Ted Miles ted_miles@nps.gov |

James, I've always loved that photo and wished I could have been there to see it. It's every history buff's dream. Also, I thought I heard someone say that the location of the water tank may be across from the section house, near the yard lead. Is that the plan? And are there any pieces of the original Head Tide structure which can be incorporated into the new one? I know the ruins of it are still there, but I've never seen it. SJHussar@aol.com |

I'm lucky to have gotten that photo, as the day they came it rained cats and dogs the whole day. The picture didn't look so hot in color but it looks really nice in B&W (if I may say so myself). > Also, I thought I heard someone say that the > location of the water tank may be across > from the section house, near the yard lead. > Is that the plan?

Yes, the water tank will be generally across from the section house. We have a large pipe from the old tank which we may use in the new one (I think it feeds the spout). You have to hike quite aways upriver to find the ruins. WW&F Railway Museum |
