Volunteer Safety Training Weekend is May 3 & 4, at McEwen (east end of the railroad). Membership information is on the "Sumpter Valley RR" website.

At least it is interesting, especially considering my father worked in the Erie, PA roundhouse doing the same work. Of course, I usually prefer replicating my grandfather's work as fireman and engineer for over 50 years.
