GN GN 1147....

FYI. The #1147 in Wenatchee has recieved fresh paint!! Just read on Lindsay Koerst's website that she was re-done in the Glacier colors. Nice!

 

Hemi ... she's a GN Class F-8, 2-8-0 ... and here is her pic that is posted on Lindsay's website http://www.gngoat.org ... :tb-biggrin:

Just in time for the 2008 Convention in Wenatchee ... July 20-23rd. :tb-cool:

 

Now somebody needs to rescue the one in Oregon that's in pieces that used to be in the Woodland Park Zoo, here in Seattle a long time ago!!

 

Having seen the 1147 recently, it looks better than it has in decades.

 

Hey, a highlight of the GNRHS Wenatchee convention is the bus trip up the old Mansfield branch. Can't wait!

 

I never made it. I just had to work a few weeks straight, and just this weekend am getting caught up on things. It has been nice to get away from work finally and have a real life.
