Just a day away until Opening weekend at the Museum. Our members have been working hard over the last few months to make it a great experience this year. Just a few more minor things to take care of on Friday, and we’ll be all ready for Saturday.

Our batteries in the GE 25tonner finally quite on us last week. We contacted Pro Battery Shops ( http://www.probatteryshops.com/ )?in Fonthill. Scott Forbes?provided 4 new 8v batteries at a very reasonable cost. Thanks to our members who donated to help cover the cost of the batteries, the GE now starts better than ever! And thanks to Scott for getting us what we needed, and for delivering them to the shop.

Shoved outside, waiting for new batteries.

Don’t forget, Opening weekend is this weekend, May 14th & 15th, 10am to 4pm both days, rain or shine.
