Wicked cool, Earl! You've run just about everything that steams in your life. How did you like the view of those VERY narrow rails from up there in the cab of #9? It's different, eh? LOL! 20 mph seems a whole lot faster!
Thanks for the great series. I hope more folks will come up and see us in Maine. Thanks to Rick and J.B. for giving Earl the full tour!
