Thanks to everyone for all the great pictures and narrative and a big thumbs up to the workers in session "G"!

Thanks Ed for all the great photos, it is hard to imagine how much work got accomplished in a 'bonus session', the regular sessions would be hard pressed to top this.

That siding should sure help protect the cars from the elements, am I to assume that next summer will see the other side covered?

Looking at all that brake hardware and the chain for the hand brake really puts the frameless tanker within striking distance of being finished, and I would suspect that the next two tank cars will go faster now that the learning curve is over.

Well done all!

ED: I hope the BOD will decide to enclose the entire CSF at some point in time as that will keep people from vandalizing the cars. JMO!
