Kate explained that the train was a gift from her father, who recently suffered a stroke, and that she was hoping that metal expert Dominic Chinea would be able to restore the treasured item so that her father could watch his grandchildren play with it.
Dominic soon got to work on the train on the family heirloom but it was a bittersweet return to the barn for Kate as she revealed that her father had since passed away.
Overwhelmed with the astonishing transformation, Kate began tearing up. "I think it would have meant the world to dad," she said.
