Chip with some help from other COSM members Erik and Jeff have been working on a new consist that Chip once rode as youth in the 1950’s. Chip fondly recalls riding in the upper because it was lower than the upper; or something like that. Chip is a very passionate historian and his wealth of experience and knowledge is very useful in creating our historical and educational exhibits.
Some more historical discussion is contained here about the Nightcrawler. And here.
