[CBQ] Car57 north side almost complete

[MICHAEL PANNELL <michael.pannell@btinternet.com>]

Hi to all

 We have made much progress over the holiday and have about 6 feet left to 
complete the re-siding of the North side of the Pullman car. She is looking 
drop dead gorgeous and we cant help but stand and gaze ! Sadly no sign of 
lining or numbers were found under the paint on the best preserved area of 
siding, leading us to believe that it wasnt lined after its 1906 repaint. 
However we did find 50 year old household items and a 103 year old joke printed 
on a card in the walls. We will now move on to the North end which requires 
fire damage repairs, the upper siding we are intending to retain as it appears 
to be entirely original, the lower siding was attacked by the fire department 
with an axe when a badly put out stove ignited the underside!  New pictures are 
on the fotopic site
