Running the rotary was truly an opportunity to experience "old time" railroading. During the 90s we did it to open the line and get the kind of publicity abd national attention we could never afford to buy.
It is my plan to inspect the 0Y this year and see what it requires to be ready. After that it is up to money and snow amounts.
A couple of notes on your pictures. In pic #9 Jack Campbell is in the gangway, Mark Yates is on the ground talking to him and I am the one in the white hard hat.
Thanks for posting the pics.
