16's Truck Work

 For the past few weeks, the shop has been hard at work disassembling the East truck on Springfield car 16. The ware components of the truck have worn down to the point that they needed to be replaced, starting with parts of the leaf spring and the bushings. This work will be continuing throughout the next weeks.
