On Saturday Frank and I were both out for Museum Showcase Weekend, and things went very well. The weather was perfect and we seemed to have a great crowd of visitors. Chuck Amstein was there and I'm sure he'll have a great photo album for us soon, so this is just a preview of what's to come.
In the morning we switched the 36 out of the consist, since two cars would probably be enough and are much easier to fit into the berths on Station 1.
That leaves us with the 309 and 319. They both ran without problems.
Later, the 1754 and 1808 were both brought out.
And in the evening, IRM had its first five-car wood L train in service. More on that later.
Another special event was the dedication of the refurbished UP sign, which now lights up.
We got to meet with some old friends as often happens; Randy and Betty Anderson, John Myhre, Bruce Moffat, and others. And night-time operations were as enjoyable as ever. Stay tuned!
