Volunteer Restoration Activities
Eagle Scouts interested in railroading can opt to adopt a car and supervise renovation. A Denver and Rio Grande Western flat car, once used to haul granite blocks used in construction of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, was the project that Philip Hyde of Friendswood chose to restore in 2000 as his Eagle Scout Project.
To assist in this effort, his Scoutmaster obtained a $1,000 grant from Exxon to purchase materials.
