Ex DAR Car 3252 is looking grim

[DragonHeart]

After taken a trip to Musquodoboit Harbour Railway Museum I was told we wore at risk of losing the old DAR car 3252 I took some video of it the Museum is planning on restoring her or fixing her up and she needs it, they are taking Donations for the repairs.
I posted a link below to the Video:

Thanks for the photos. The museum closed two weeks ago for the season.

The old combine is in pretty sad shape. It doesn't look like it has seen much more than a new coat of paint and successive layers of tar added to the roof over the years.

As wonderful as it is that the museum took George Warden's collection at a time when it seemed no one else was the least bit interested, it still suffers from being out of context historically in the location that it is in.

Because it is also out of the mainstream public eye, I hold no hope for any significant donation that would restore this historically important car to any level of previous glory unfortunately.

What needs to happen is the province needs to get interested in this and the snowplow and drag them back out to Stellarton where they can be restored and place in the Museum of Industry for safekeeping for the people of Nova Scotia.
