On Saturday, September 17, we had one of our smallest turn outs for a work crew, and I would dare say that given the average age of today’s volunteers, we had the oldest track gang working in the country today. Dwight Maxey, Colin Mellin and Paul Brown were the crew today. Now we only worked on the track in the morning, and we removed two long switch ties from under the track. Take a close look at the photos and tell me what you think of the condition of these ties!! They were pretty much disintegrated! When we completed that task, we broke for lunch.
After lunch, we worked on the tool truck and did some clean up work in the shop yard area. I have only included pictures of the track work.
