---------------------------------------------------------------- Bob & Larry preparing the jacketing for it's first coat of primer. Installing the air compressor tank on the Fireman's side of the 103.. --------------------------------------------------   The TH&B 103 crew toast the completion of heavy work on the engine. This is the way she looked on May 22 2005. The Rededication took place on this day and we all breathed a sigh of relief. There is more to be done but mostly in the cab and some pipe installations. Next on the list is a building to help preserve the engine, hopefully this can happen in the near future. Thanks to all those people and companies who have helped us over the past 8 years and we could not have done it without them and the crew above.   2   Photos by J.
