In the picture at the left, (from left to right) Knox, Arno and Michael try to figure out “what next” when the cover wouldn’t come out. In the middle photo above, Knox (left) and Arno (right) work at prying up a wooden pit cover that lacked a pull ring. In the photo at right, (from left ot right) Bob, Arno (in blue hat), Dave and Michael successfully raise the first bridge rail. These are made from two rails placed base-flange to base-flange then rivetted together and have a special cast shoe at each end to form a sliding support. One rail was marked “Lackawanna 1921” another was dated 1929 – the year the roundhouse was built.
