Sigh... vandalism in our railyard is heartbreaking. We're 100% volunteer run non-profit so this kind of thing just takes away from our ability to improve other aspects of our operations. If you've ever consider donating to help support your local community we sure would appreciate it.

Big shout out to the Belton PD who acted quickly to apprehend a suspect. And thank you to MVP painting for help with removal of the graffiti.
