The 9th Annual Fall Foliage and Photographer's Weekend was held on October 17 and 18, and was well attended, and blessed with good weather. Both locomotives performed very well, and operations were relatively problem free on both Saturday and Sunday. This was likely the last guaranteed time number 3 and 19 would be running side by side on a photo train for the near future. Our thanks go out to all who attended, and to all the volunteers who busted their butts to makes these trains a success. These were not the last trains of the season though, a private photo charter is scheduled this Saturday, and we still have the Christmas Trains in December. If you haven't seen number 19 strut her stuff, your opportunities are fast disappearing. Anyway, I was working the stations, so I did not get much of a chance at pictures, hopefully others will post some better images shortly, but you get the idea.
Enjoy, Taylor
