Work Session - 3/16/11


Joe Banzer and Rick Nagy working with the new air compressor mount for the air brakes. George Raby watches as Steve Zaken applies the primer paint under Bonnie Zaken's watchful eye.
Since it was near St. Patrick's Day, Bonnie brought in a food spread complete with balloons for us to enjoy. Steve and George manning the brushes to make light of the work.
It's break time and Dick Clark starts making a sandwich from all the goodies Bonnie brought. Sam Foti showed up to see what the celebration was all about. Sam is the owner of Hose Master and graciously lets us use space in his plant for our winter work sessions.
Sam on his preferred mode of transportation around the plant. It is his dedicated Cushman vehicle with appropriate vanity plate!
Joe Banzer and Paul Zorko discuss the mounting of the new microswitch for the neutral shift position lockout in its new location. Dave Foster applying pipe dope to the hydraulic hose connections while Ted Nyland watches.
The new splice plate that Dave made to replace the old distribution block thus eliminating one hose back to the hydraulic oil tank. Bill Deptowicz connecting up the hoses from the hydraulic motors to the new splice plate.
Break time! Everyone sitting around after enjoying the good food with many thanks to Bonnie. Bonnie and Steve watching George as he contemplates the roof walk on the box car cover.
The box car cover all painted with primer and waiting for the decision on final paint color. A view from the back of the Park engine looking forward over the newly installed hydraulic hose lines going forward to the hydraulic pump.
View showing the suction line connected and the distribution lines through the new splice plate. All the hoses are installed and the only thing left to do is mount the air pump for the horns, which is laying on the bed plate.
