Car # 140 - Wensday - 08/26/20

Car # 140 was in fair condition when we started but needed Allot of Attention

Most of the Top Block were there but had no Leading Edge Top Blocks on it that we had to take off another car

Cleaned all the top Block off and cleaned all the brick shards so the block could be adjusted

Replaced all the Top Block on Car with good Blocks off of several other cars

Set all the Top Block in Precise Position and Realinged the block several times to get bet set position

Put 1 Expansion Joints Horizontally to allow for block compression inside the Kiln

Put all 48 Brick Support Block on Top and arranged them to fit the setter for Efficiency

Straightened out Left Front Bottom Skirt and Right Front Bottom Skirt so they go through the Kiln

Painted all 6 sides of all 4 of the Corner Blocks and Painted Number #140 on all 6 sides

Left Rear Wheel was severly damaged and had to be replaced , so we replaced the Axle - both sets of Bearings

And Races with new ones , cleaned the old grease out and replaced it with new cleaned the seals and put wheel

Back on car then jacked up each corner and Greased the other 3 wheels and made sure they all 4 rolled freely .
