March 7 Workday

It was almost perfect weather for a workday and everyone was in good spirits. There were several groups of members working on different projects going on at the same time. One group was working on installing electrical conduit in the tranches created Friday.

Another group of members were rebuilding switches for Gaddes Yard in the steaming bay. The elevated tracks provide a solid work area for these large switches and there is plenty of room to store all the ties needed.

The final group of members were connecting track panels and switches, once the other team had rebuilt them in the yard. With so many members working on various tasks but with the same goal in mind, the work went very smoothly. The yard is about 60% complete and work will continue during the next workdays.
