They've been working on the railroad

The engineering students have done their job. Now it's up to Village Council to decide the painting and refurbishing of the caboose in Railroad Depot Park. The students (from left, Victoria Smith, Cam Brown, Nick Hess, Sam Kerber) studied what needed to be done and talked with businesses to get an estimate of the cost: $11,736 for exterior sandblasting and painting, roof repair, and stenciling. Perhaps service clubs or individuals may help with some of the costs. The students reported that the railroad ties the caboose sits upon would last several more years. No work was suggested for the interior since it is not open to the public. What work, who will do the work, and when it will get done is yet to be decided. (Monty Siekerman)
