The cars should arrive Monday morning at the HVRM interchange. So they should be on the property mid day.

The Caboose and Business car arrived at the museum this morning.  The business car was put into the shop, out of the weather, and locked up.


Arrival to HVRM (12/11/2023), Mission accomplished.
