COOLING PROJECT |
|
|
After wraping the muffler one of the next projects for the SP#177 was to open up some of the molded on
castings to allow more airflow. The exhaust casting is the first victim.

MUFFLER UPGRADE |
|
|
The SP #177 is getting a new muffler. Years of use have taken its toll on the old muffler. Also I will try
to reroute the exhaust and wrap the exhaust system to protect the Fiberglass shell.

SP W/V CABOOSE |
|
|
The Shasta Pacific Wide Vision Caboose originally built in 1986 by Backyard Rails was involved
in a near tragic rear end collision at Over the Hill Live Steamers in 1988. Repairs have been made to strengthen
the ends and it is currently in the paint shop erasing the bad memories.
