Many thanks to Zach Ehlers, freelance blog reporter as well as IRM president (we'll let you make the call as to which of those is the more prestigious title), who sent along some photos taken on Sunday of Trolley Weekend, which my father and I both had to miss.
Saturday evening, Zach and the other guys switched around the CA&E wood cars to add the 308 to the middle of the train. Many thanks to all! Here's the three-car train on the ladder track, ready to go into service, with West Towns 141 in Yard 6 poised to go out on the streetcar line.
The 319, 308, and 309 are seen on Station 1 with ComEd 4 and the coach train on track 2.
That's a snappy-looking crew! Zach is in the cab as motorman, with Drew and Aaron as trainman and conductor, respectively.
And here's a motorman's-eye view of the D13 cutting off the caboose train; it pulled the caboose train for the first half of the day and was then swapped out for Charles City Western 300.
