EXCURSION SEASON BEGINS

With the turn of the seasons into spring, the time for excursions has begun!
While not the 611, the famous class J, number 34 has been around for well over a century and can still earn her keep! And besides, can you ride an open-air car behind the 611? We think not!
The short train rolls on to Cumberland.
Other excursion steamers may be bigger, faster, and more powerful, but number 34 has a elegant charm all her own!
On board the cars are several women enjoying a pleasant Mother's Day ride; a gift for Mom indeed!

Finally, two views of a water tower kit I received from a friend (thanks Chuck) and recently completed. Weather or not it stays in this location remains to be seen, but it seems to be a good fit here.
