In May, the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society ran Nickel Plate #765 on some trips around Horseshoe Curve. Here's a thread about it, over at the discussion forum of O-Gauge Railroading:
O Gauge Railroading magazine's Discussion Forum - Nickel Plate 765 May 18, 2013

On that weekend, the Railroaders Heritage Corporation tripled the admission fee to Horseshoe Curve (from $6.25 to $20), required two uniformed FWRHS crewmembers (765 Engineer Rich Melvin & 765 fireman Kelly Lynch) to both pay that $20 admission fee, and then the Railroaders Heritage Corporation did not even share any of the revenue with the FWRHS!
