Save Our Train meeting tonight

The Save Our Train committee is meeting tonight at 6pm to talk about their effort to save the train at Pioneer park. The committee meets at the City's Purchasing Department conference room, 20 E. Main Street.

The story says that they have applied for a few grants, but no word on if they got them or if they will have even close to enough money by the deadline. Mesa is hopefully thinking up a contingency plan on how to handle the sale of the train in a community-friendly way. Let's hope Chandler or somewhere else wants it.

At this point, it would probably be cheaper to comission a tran statue to represent where the train stood. There would be less asbestos and the kids could probably even play on it again.
