Good news in case you didn't see this on the Trains forum:  

http://trn.trains.com/news/news-wire/2018/02/22-texas-steam-fundraiser-meets-goal

The $ 65K goal to save the grand lady 503 was meet Thursday, 02/22, morning!  Hat's off to everyone who chip in the few dollars each to reach the goal.  There are more pictures and discussion at: http://cs.trains.com/trn/f/740/p/268343/3040774.aspx#3040774

Now the block and tackel work needs done.

Now you all know the rest of the story.

I don't know if any of the phone calls I made or messages and emails I sent helped.
