Edaville #130
« on: May 01, 2023, 02:04:51 PM »
Folks,
         I found this car on my Edaville roster. Is this the same car that is being discussed in the Board Minutes and being painted on the Spring Work Weekend?

130 is Maine Locomotive and Machine 130. Jason assigned that number so the car could have a number on our system. It is a very nice open car. It is the car that was discussed in a recent meeting.

And it was renumbered 131 on Saturday 4/29/2023 to avoid a numbering conflict with a different open car 130, which is also owned by Maine Locomotive and Machine works.

now car #131. a suggestion of improvement spurred by an overheard comment on last Sat. lavender train: the upper edge of the seat back and the inner edge of the sill have edges that make it uncomfortable to lean on. Could this space (there is a gap) be covered with a rounded molding of some sort?
