    The car that has been awaiting to move since last October is almost ready, and almost have all the quotes aligned to have the car move as soon as the last bit of work is ready.  I would personally like to thank Mr. Jong of San Diego for donating a gracious donation of $2500 to the cause.  Once the car is moving we will post more photos on here of and after the move.  Again, thank you to all of you who have donated and supported this project along the way.

    Here is a rendering that I made of what the Cuyamaca may one day look like.  This is not based on any paint samplings or historic material on the car, but instead only off of photos and the historical analysis preformed by the Nevada State Railroad Museum.
