It is the late 1980's early 1990's and car 1326 undergoes extensive rebuilding

 

 

 

 

 

"Back when we worked on 1326, the end of the car was damaged, which required a complete rebuild.  We took the entire end of the car apart and Wayne Jenkins, myself and others (I believe Bill Dow and Bill Mertens did the painting for instance) rebuilt the end of the car completely.  A member made up much of the new wood for the end from patterns that we were able to salvage.  We took the end completely apart, straightened the knees and worked up from there.  The car got all new framing on the ends and floor, new flooring, new siding and windows on the ends etc.  Much of the inside wood was salvaged and glued back together so that the inside doesn't reflect the extent of the work"; quoted by Galen.
