The organization acquired the only surviving locomotive of the Mount Tamalpais and Muir Woods Scenic Railway. It has completed the removal of asbestos from the engine and has restored parts of the engine. The organization has also been exploring potential sites for displaying the locomotive in southern Marin County. The organization has been active in educating the public about the history of the locomotive and the scenic railway through public presentations, outreach to media, its Youtube channel and its website, which contains a significant amount of content on the history of the locomotive and the Scenic Railway, as well as updates about the organization's progress in restoring the locomotive. 11992 500 Steam Whistle Recreation Work:A four-voice Casey Jones steam whistle was recreated by Chris Rizzoli of Rizzoli Locomotive Works, LLC. There have been four different whistles on Engine 9. The first never made it to Mill Valley, in 1921, and was likely stolen during the cross-country trip from the Heisler factor in Erie, PA. The Tamalpais Scenic Railway promptly created the first Casey Jones whistle from parts found in their workshop. Whistles are an essential signaling device on every locomotive. This second 1921 whistle was made by banding several tuned cylinders together to make a harmonious sound. The third whistle was installed by Pacific Lumber in 1956 during their restoration of Engine 9. Our recreation process cleaned up the surviving parts, created gleaming new replacement parts, and then began tuning the four-note whistle. Friends of No. 9 debuted the recreated steam whistle during the 100th anniversary celebration of Engine 9s first arrival in Mill Valley on April 18, 1921. A video of that performance appears on the YouTube channel of Friends of No. 9.Tender Restoration Work:The first major metalwork restoration involved the tender that contains the water necessary to operate the steam engine. The tender was removed from the locomotive and relocated by Phil Joy Housemoving to the Millerick Brothers Coast Marine Construction in Sebastopol, CA. Extensive repairs and replacement metal dealt with the century of rust and deformations of the tender. Delta Sandblasting removed the rust and paint prior to restoration metalwork. Rusted portions were cut out and replacement new metal was welded in place. The tender was painted black and remains in storage until it can be installed after further restoration work on the engine. Lettering will be applied to match the design from the initial 1921 operation of Engine 9. 11992 Fred Runner President 50.00 0 Roger Smith Vice President 4.00 0 Chris Di Pasqua Treasurer 4.00 0 Eric Macris Secretary 4.00 0 false false false false false false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false CA Fred Runner 372 Bel Marin Keys Blvd Ste C2 Novato CA 94949 4153027677 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 41340 64744 67977 143286 317347 0 0 0 0 41340 64744 67977 143286 317347 0 0 317347 0 0 0 0 41340 64744 67977 143286 317347 X 0.00000 0.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Other Expenses.1008 Interest $4725 Other Expenses.1012 Insurance $929 Other Expenses.1 Plaza Art Project $3000 Other Expenses.2 100th Anniversary Event $1708 Other Expenses.3 Website $1260 Other Expenses.4 Bank Fees $171 Other Expenses.5 Taxes, Fees & Licenses $150 Other Assets.1 Locomotive - No. 9 (Not in service) - Beginning $94754 Locomotive - No. 9 (Not in service) - Ending $128518 Total Liabilities.1007 Secured Mortgages and Notes Payable - Beginning $55000 Secured Mortgages and Notes Payable - Ending $39725
