November 8, 2023 Restoration Update

A small update today!

The 21292 has a damaged marker light on one end, and while the other one appears intact from the outside, the insides are badly corroded. These are still manufactured by Star, but…

We were able to source six originals for about the price of one new one. Two of these (the two red ones) will be donated to Operation Toy Train to replace the missing ones on their Chessie caboose 904059. Two of the amber ones will be installed in the original positions on the 21292, and the remaining two will be used as part sources for these two cars if needed.
