Quincy Railroad 1100/Southern Pacific 1100 update

[Anonymous]

The fund drive to move the Southern Pacific/Quincy TR6A 1100 to the Portola
Railroad Museum has nearly reach the halfway mark! As of this weekend,
about $2500 has been raised toward the goal of $5000.

We still need to close that gap. We have no word yet on when or if the UP
will sever the branch, but SPI is close to terminating their lease and the
UP wants to pull the line.

On-line donations can be made at
http://www.wplives.org/FRRS_Home/Donate/donate.html
<http://www.wplives.org/FRRS_Home/Donate/donate.html> . Donations are
processed using the secure PayPal system.

Or, you can mail a check to Feather River Rail Society, P O Box 608,
Portola, CA, 96122. Please mark it "Quincy 1100 Fund" in the memo line.

You can follow the progress on the donate page and see a recent photo of the
1100.

Thanks to everyone who has donated to help us save Q 1100!
