Spring 2012

In April, we installed Trish Tripp's rail scene mural, previously a garage door in Minneapolis, into our boxcar where it greatly adds to the ambiance.

Eclipse watching from the boxcar — the combo of an art show opening, a line-up of well-known bands, and a rare solar eclipse led to a larger than expected number of people showing up.

Mikey in a 1958 Ford tractor borrowed from some friends down the road. We accomplished a number of earth moving projects before it went bust!

Totems by Emily True in our PFE Reefer Gallery. Emily and Pokey had a joint art opening at our Spring 2012 Work Party.

In addition to Emily and Pokey's work the show featured some work by other artists including this drawing of a Bristlecone Pine by Joey Alone as well as artwork by Holly Bradford.

Pokey released a new set of screenprints at the opening.

Despite the chaos, many work projects were accomplished. T-Bone welding the railbike trailer.

The library/resource center in our PFE reefer continues to grow with many books, zines, and other materials being added all the time.

Interior restoration work continues on the ATSF caboose at Black Butte.
