Laudable progress

Last post omscaler was pondering the level of progress that would be made over the course of the present project. Currently, tender wheels are installed as well as all necessary running gear associated with the tenders. Tender body side sheets are next on order. The basic stock piece for one tender is ready to be formed and cut. The hope is that all three tenders will be done by week’s end. It is fortunate that all three are the same design.
