Christmas at the Station

Saturday Dec 1 2012 was a nice day. I went up to the museum for Christmas at the station. It was a great day with a very large crowd of people. I made a video of the caboose hop. I drained the old gas from the gas tank on the A6 speeder and put in some fresh gas and some gas stabilizer. I did not want to run bad gas through the new carburetor. I disconnected the temporary plastic gas tank and connected the line from the fuel pump to the carb. I bought a tube of silicone and caulked the seams on the roof of the car. I removed the corner brackets for the front and rear platforms to wire brush and paint. I measured all the wood dimensions to make all new treated wood. I replaced the missing brake lever. When the brakes didn’t work I saw that the front brake shoes were missing. I hope to be able to find new brake shoes for the car.
