The C.R.O.C.K.S.

Here's some shots of on-going progress on the caboose- the C.R.O.C.K.S. (Citizens Restoring Our Caboose at King's Station) have been putting in a lot of hours. The siding is all up,and 4 windows have been built in place on the long sides.


I've been grinding scale rust away from the metal parts, and hope to get the cupola windows operational this month. The red is just a primer.


I'll be going to the Cooperstown and Charlotteville to get stencils saved from the Oneonta roundhouse for the logos.
