Re: Jealous??

From 2007-2011, my father and I attended Railfest each year. We had a great time and each year we expressed this to Yvonne and Rich and a few times to Mr. Harper. But as noted, the specials always had open seats. In 2008, the 315 special was slightly over half full. In 2009, E&P 4 was about 3/4 full (her first return in several years). My dad did go back in the fall a few times and said those specials were full. Bottom line is I don’t doubt that Railfest was a money loser which is too bad. I know I enjoyed it throughly and met many people that post here today. I wish I lived closer and had deeper pockets. What a fantastic place to be.

Also, thank you to all in your respected areas who post your pictures and share your adventures for those of us stuck in the out of the way places. It does help with keeping a feeling of connection, at least for me.
