Current Projects at the Museum

Thirlmere Museum

Rebuilding and repainting seating.

Thirlmere Grounds

Co-ordinator is Gil Wheaton. This group is responsible for the care, maintenance and development of the Museum grounds and gardens.

Silver City Comet

Co-ordinator is Phil Davis. This group is giving the Silver City Comet Power Van a full restoration to operational condition. All of the mechanical systems are now operational with work now concentrating on body repairs before repainting.

Track Maintenance

Coordinator is Peter Lawrence. This group is working on the maintenance of tracks on the loopline (below left) and Buxton (below right).

12. Buxton Station and Precinct.

Coordinator is Ian Sheppard. The initial phase of this project will be the erection of the former Burrawang Platform building and the former Summit Tank Signal Box which will form the basis of the creation of a full branch-line station at Buxton. In conjunction with the Signal & Safe-working Group, Buxton will eventually be fully signalled utilising the signal box with the frame recovered recently from Moss Vale.
