Hesston Candy Cane Express
| December 10, 2007 05:50PM |
Hesston ran our annual Candy Cane Express train (with a DISEASEL --- UGH) first 2 weekends in December. Wonderful weather -- rain - freezing rain - sleet and snow and combinations for all 4 days. Had decent crowds in spite of the weather -- probably over 1000 PAID riders, and several hundred who brought a Toys for Tots gift in exchange for a free ride.
