Over the years the Friends have created a startling fine restoration facility In Antonito consisting of a the Car Restoration facility, a large Car Shelter capable of housing as many as 18 cars and 4 storage containers housing materials used in restoration projects. This May approximately 80 members are volunteering their time and energy in service to the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad.

This is a great photo. Was it taken with a drone? If so, what are the chances the drove could shoot some boxcar roofs in Chama? Roofs are *so* hard to see from the ground but one of the first things we see on our models.

Just a thought...

Greg, I think that was shot from the high lift they used on the storage building.

Ed - thank you for this, as well as all your photos from the various work sessions. It's truly a wonderful insight for those of us that can't be there, and shows the tremendous amount of work that goes into the various projects.
