*(BernCo Neighborhood Coordination note:  Here’s another reminder for this
weekend’s Open House with a few extra comments from your friends at the
Alameda North Valley Association.  Note the additional picture of the
engine, tender and caboose from several years ago when it was on display
near I-40 and 2nd Street and deteriorating due to the sun and weather.  We
also admire the hundreds of volunteers who have spent literally thousands
of hours to restore this great piece of  history to her former glory.  It
will certainly be amazing to see the old Santa Fe 2926 roar down the tracks
once again under her own steam!)     *

*(**anvanews note: The locomotive is very interesting and the folks working
on it have dedicated years of hard work on the project. Great event for
all.*)

*You are cordially invited to the NMSLRHS Annual Open House on Saturday
September 29th at our restoration site at 1833 8th Street NW. Free music,
foods and soft drinks. * *Bring family, friends, and "kids" of all* *ages!*

*Addendum to the Train Open House information:*

·        I remember...early '70s...taking my "little girls" to clamber
aboard the engine when it sat as a memorial at Coronado Park on 2nd St. by
recently completed I-40 and before a chain link fence had to be put up to
protect it.

·

Likewise, I remember several years ago seeing it when they'd taken the
"skin" off during the restoration, revealing a complex array of conduit
etc. covering the body of the boiler and wondering what Genius mind had
created this million ton behemoth that could run close to a hundred miles
an hour hauling a hundered freight cars behind it by simply burning some
coal?

Hopefully this added video *http://tinyurl.com/y7ududkq
<http://tinyurl.com/y7ududkq>* might further entice Folks to visit the open
house and, if possible, drop a few pesos for the completion of the work of
tireless Gal & Guy Volunteers saving a bit of New Mexico that contributed
to the country' wellbeing, especially during WWII.

Hasta....

Vecino Bob
