Mid-Train Helper at RVRY

Today was the last day of the Redwood Valley Railway 2022 narrow gauge meet. It was pouring rain all morning, but since we had two trains assembled and a little time before the public trains started, we decided it would be fun to run a mid-train helper with our 2-6-2 #7 and 4-6-0 #11:

I was engineer on the #7 mid-train and Scott Kennedy was engineer on the #11
5 inch scale cabs aren't big enough to get inside so it was a very wet trip...
