REVITALIZING RAIL HISTORY: TVRM’S TRANSFORMATION OF DINING CAR #899 BOLSTERED BY JOHN EMERY RAIL HERITAGE TRUST GRANT
TVRM Gratefully Acknowledges John Emery Rail Heritage Trust Grant
We are deeply appreciative to have been awarded a grant of $20,000 from the John Emery Rail Heritage Trust. Notably, half of this grant, amounting to $10,000, was received in mid-2022.
This generous funding is instrumental in facilitating numerous enhancements to the dining car #899, known as the Silver Lake. Among the key improvements are the transformation of the lounge area into an extended kitchen space, the addition of two gas stoves, a dishwasher, a three-compartment sink, and vital electrical modifications to support standby operations.
