Bonus video.

Not much of a video but it is an unusual move you don’t see often.


A southbound train had some issue at Castle Rock so two units were sent down from Denver. The problem is there aren’t any crossovers for the joint line for like 40 miles so these units had to go to Palmer Lake where it becomes single track and back their way north to Castle Rock on the southbound track.

Last Sunday we were near Arcade and decided to go to the Curriers station to see if we could find the excurion train. Sho' nuff, #18 was there with a long train for their Halloween Express, and most everyone we saw (except for the train crew) were in costume.























And yesterday (11/2) a day trip to Erie included a stop in Meadville where WNY&P Alco 421 was parked.

Took a trip to NC on the 27th and rode the GSMRR. Car attendant said they had no damage to equipment, and only a few mudslides to clear.
The excursion ran along the Tuckaseegee River, and you could see all the driftwood piled along the banks.
