To better understand where you are, you need to look back at where you came from. This is the first video of a new series that will look at different events from around the Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum from several years past.
On March 13, 1999, we find a sunny, but snow covered Saturday at the R&GVRRM. With the road to the then new restoration shop covered in over a foot of snow, the front loader started to plow the road only to find the slopped edge of the road where it stayed. Undaunted, museum volunteer, George Knab, went off to get a machine to both handle the snow and handle pulling out the loader, the museum’s 1950s vintage cable blade Caterpillar D7 dozer!
We see George handle the snow and then pull out the loader. Alas only four short years later, we would lose George. To this day, he is greatly missed, but not forgotten. We hope you enjoy the video and we always welcome people to come to visit & volunteer to see where we are now after looking back…
