This month ‘s meeting is being done by program coordinators Eric Grover and Jackson Small on the club’s equipment. Have you ever wondered about what it takes to restore a diesel locomotive? In this presentation we are going to give an in-depth view of the restoration projects that the 470 club has completed over the past few years. We will cover the history of these locomotives and the process that it took to restore them. We will look at the skill and craft that is needed to make these locomotives look brand new. It’s neither easy nor clean, but it’s a job that skilled volunteers do because of the love and passion they have for railroad history. So, join the 470 club in a review of its restoration projects completed in the last few years and get an inside look at what it takes to make something old new again.
