**UPDATE 8/13/23** Since our last update we’ve been able to purchase the new Batteries and Injectors needed for the locomotive. We have a quote in place for the the new Turbo and plan to make that purchase soon. In the next 30 days, we will remove the old turbo and perform a more detailed inspection of the prime mover. If all goes well, we plan to immediately begin re-assembly and installation of the recently purchased components. Unless we come across some unknown problems, it’s still a very good possibility that we’ll be able to do a test fire before the end of this year. Again, we want to Thank our generous donors who have helped get us to this point. We are still working on raising funds for the cosmetic part of the restoration. Donations can be accepted online or by sending a check. All donations are tax deductible and would greatly help achieve our goal!
