FALL EXCURSION TRAINS

As always, fall is excursion train time!

Engine 34 rolls its little train east to D.C.

Though ancient, the 1897-built steamer has little trouble with the two-car train. The beautiful blue color of the boiler is a darker variation of the Russian Blue found on many steamers around the turn of the 20th century.

The entire train is a collection of museum pieces!

The much-newer -but still 65 years old- EMD F7 of the Dinner Belle rolls westward to Pittsburgh.

The Dinner Belle has the extra dinner in the consist, making for a 4-car train instead of the normal 3-car set. And, of course, the two domes are full!
