We have cleaned house and are ready for the open house. Access to 0252 has been provided with a platform and steps at this end, and a ramp at the other end. The venture was a qualified success, with some visitors making it around the corner to tour the car, but publicity needs much improvement, not only to direct people to our exhibit, but to attend the event. The number "15" is a mystery. It was hanging on the wall inside the car when we opened it. Another mystery: 0252 is not the original car number for the D&RG. We hope to find evidence of that during the restoration process.Tuesday, September 8, 2009
