    The RR did not what this published before hand at ALL. It made it to one RR forum and the RR threw a FIT.

    Awesome! I always wished my dad can take me on the railroad when he works so I can see stuff like this. I loved the Williamsburg Bridge moving shot...that came out awesome! Thanks for sharing this!

    Thanks guys..

    Newsday did a story about it today, page A15.

    "The caboose, donated by the Oyster Bay Railroad Museum, made its way to the New York Transit Museum by railroad and subway tracks from Riverhead at a "breathtaking speed of 15 miles per hour," LIRR Senior Vice President of Operations Ray Kenny said."

    Twin Forks owns the hack, and its on loan for a year.

    There is ALOT of angry people right now. Chapter has not been contacted at all.

    Did it need a lot of work prior to it looking as good as it does now?
