Arlen -
We're all very pleased at the funding award and astounded at some of the high profile properties we beat out for funding including King Street Station, 5th Avenue Theatre, Arthur Foss, and even the Museum of History and Industry (MOHI). We are truly honored to have been selected to participate and almost overwhelmed at what we have achieved, especially considering who we were competing with. I believe this signals a turning point for how railway preservation is perceived by the mainstream. We believe in our project and evidently a lot of other people do too!
Thanks again for everyone's votes.
