This past Saturday the SCRM Diesel Shop crew made great progress on our two restoration projects; USAF 45 tonner #7441 and SP ALCo RSD-12 2954 that will now be referred to as SP 7004, which is its original number and the one the locomotive will once again wear when restored.

On May 30th and 31st. SCRM is hosting their annual Behind the Scenes event. This is a great way to see, first hand, what makes the museum function. Visitors will have access to areas of the museum that are normally off limits. This includes The Diesel Shop, so come down and say hi to the shop crew and get up close and personal to our amazing locomotive collection. The crew will be happy to answer any questions as well as share their experiences and show you around the locomotives. There will also be interesting diplays for you to enjoy.

We look forward to seeing you there!!
