Train engine progress

The crew worked hard on the Trinidad pirate train all day. They were doing the tough and painstaking task of tying on the galvanized mesh in preparation for the sculpting which will happen next week. I welded on the piping for the whistle today and gave it a test as well. The engine is looking more and more like the concept every day and by the end of next week will be much closer to being finished. I can hardly wait to take it to California to be fit to the chassis. Then we will have to do a test drive which of course will be a whole lot of fun!
