Train Town: Railroad Days GALA at 1727 -

In late March, the fence crew arrived, and over several days installed our new attractive fence.

Hey! Lights! The Friends of Friends of Locomotive 1727 have trenched, wired and installed electricity and lighting at the engine!

There still is more to be done, installing the refurbished headlights and other cool lights. The semaphone will be fully lit and functional.

Hoping to have everything done by ribbon cutting on Railroad Days June 12
