NRM Open House Update

A good work session was held today, with a lot of brush being cleared, and some cleaning inside the shop.? Due to a lack of volunteers, the shop WILL NOT be open July 1st.? The shop will be open July 2, 3, 4 10am to 4pm.? Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.?

?The rounhouse area was uncovered today, and can be seen towards the right of centre in the accompanying photo? After more than 20yrs, the shape of the roundhouse can now be seen.? A pathway has been cut through the brush and visitors to the site will be able to walk over and see where the stalls were, as well as the wall of the turntable pit.? NS 369 was also in the yard working today, and is shown below on its way back towards the US.? Both shots were taken from the midway point on one of the sand towers.

The roundhouse area has been cut down to allow visitors to see the location.
