Attached find three photos taken this morning of DL&W MU parlor car 2454 by Steve Hepler. The car is outside in the sun after
receiving its coat of paint and lettering. The car is part of the Whippany Railway Museum collection, and the exterior restoration
was performed by StarTrak in their Boonton, NJ shop with assistance from Museum members. Eagle-eye viewers may spot the restored
stained glass window panels above the windows - these were covered up with sheet metal by the DL&W (not sure why?), but when the
sheet metal panels were removed, the glass panels were still remarkably there!

The next step will be for the Museum members to restore the interior of the car, which itself will be a lengthy procedure. But when
all is completed, the car will be available for all to ride on the Museum's regular excursion trains, completed with wicker chairs!
