I have put some of my photos of the East Broad Top's Santa Trains online at:
William Adam's East Broad Top photos

Bill doesn't have a NGDF high post count. For those of you have not yet had the pleasure of meeting him in person, Bill is a member of the Friends of the East Broad Top (FEBT) team known as the Boiler House Rats. Last year, Bill was the driving force behind the restoration of the garage at the EBT's shop complex (IIRC).

Bill also staffs FEBT tables at train shows and drove all the way up to Rockhill Furnance just to get those photos of the EBT's Santa Train. Before taking any of his own photos, he made sure the non-regulars got their shots first before he got his. (Thanks again, Bill!)

Oh, if they would only run the Winter Spectaculars again (hint hint).

I missed all the Winter Spectaculars and, like Matthew, I would also love to experience one.

That said, there are a lot of really cool, exciting things happening at the EBT under the stewardship of the East Broad Top Preservation Society. Furthermore, there are a lot of incredible experiences to be had at the EBT during its regular operating days and even more so during FEBT work sessions. My best ever visit was during a FEBT worksession on a non-operating day, when I put the cameras down and picked up some tools.

Here's a link to a FEBT page that lists the dates of their 2011 Work Sessions: Friends of the East Broad Top (FEBT) Restoration Projects
