Saturday, October 15, was a VERY productive day. Thanks to the following volunteers: Walter Earl, Linda and Michael Burshtin, Dan Lehman, Ed Wolf, Tom Mozer and James Mahraj. They worked from 8 am to 4:45 pm and here's what they accomplished:

Power washed tool room and cleaned bathroom.

Scraped mud from floor and disposed of speedy dry for haz mat removal.

Brakes lines and diaphragm replaced on 4104.

4104 moved outside under its own power.

4103 engine, trans, rear oil drained and replaced. 4103 started and ran, but clutch is hanging up.

4103 towed out of garage.

Steel shelving moved into garage.

Grass cut.

Cleaned Michaud Bus with Simple Green.

Only three buses remain in the garage--the CAT, Red Lion and Transbridge. Thanks to Dan Lehman for serving lunch to the volunteers.

I'm promised pictures this evening--so hopefully will post them tomorrow.

Great job!

Volunteer Michael Burshtin and his wife, Lynn, spent all day Sunday at home hand washing about 1200 DuPont paint color standard metal plates and laying them out in the field to dry. Our basement floor is also covered with a few thousand of the Dupont paint color standard paper files, drying out with a couple fans and
dehumidifiers. I think we can save about all of them. Ken McNelis had taken the
repair manual binders home to dry out, and he told us that they too seem
to be savable.

This is GREAT news!!! Thanks Michael.
