There is a 4th coach positioned for today's 215 so good passenger levels continue.

Early afternoon finds FOCTS working in view of both tipple cams on projects. Two project boxcars getting re-roofed on South Cam and some material layout work over on North Cam. The old table saw is out on the warehouse deck so lots of things going on today extra to the train moves.

The Friends who have been working the bench saw have really been busy today, look at the sawdust pile next to the wall by the saw.

Here's today's videos - 484 took 216 out this morning, and 489 back this afternoon with 215. Lots of work going in the yard with the Friends, and constant sounds of a power saw. I'll put together something as a review of the work, once I get home in the morning from my job.
