This car is scheduled to get a new side sill and deck in work session 'C' in 2018.

Sessions C and D in 2018 finished #6746's wood projects. Both side sills were replaced and a new deck was put on. The stiffening rails were reinstalled on the sides, too. The only remaining work is for the mechanical crew to install the retainer valve and piping to it. Then #6746 will be ready to roll!

Looks nice. The lettering crew can get busy next year on her.

I hear that the lettering crew did a great job in Session E on this car. Anyone have any recent photos of their work?
