So, with Tom leaving for SNCRR, would that effect if the 4243 will go to RMNE at all? And another question, but the grant for the B&M RS3, was that to acquire it for the collection, or for return to service?

An earlier blog entry said the 4243 was his locomotive. If he's not around, I'm guessing it won't be coming to the Naugy.

The B&M RS-3 #1508 is already on the property so any grant I'm guessing would be for work to return her to service.

How many engines/cars are coming from Saybrook?

Will it be a hospital train like in the past?

Will anything be trucked over?

Thanks,

Chris

To answer your questions, Chris:

A bunch.

Maybe.

Probably.

Now a question for you, if you don't mind: Are you interested in contributing actual physical work or actual donated dollars towards this project?

Inspection of the NAUG on Monday 8/29 encountered some downed trees that were removed quickly, and a few R-O-W ditches and culverts that needed a bit of shovel work. No serious problems and things should be taken care of quickly.

Another snarky remark!!!!

Why are you guys like this???

I asked a question? I'm curious. I'm interested.

I live in NYC. I have no way to get to CT. I am unemployed. I have no money.
