During our Fall Work Weekend (Oct. 9-12, 2026), coach 9 was moved outside for all to see. Here are a few of the photos. While it may seem that the coach is pretty much completed, there still are some tasks left to do, such as the fabrication of the platform gates, assembly of the hat racks (see photo featuring project leader Eric Schade), and the installation of the Eames vacuum brake system.

And, THANK YOU!
