Earth Day Public Run


Rick Nagy waiting for his train to be loaded with passengers, look closely and you can see the rain coming down. John Deptowicz leaving the station and Bill Bodemer, our passenger counter, moved under the roof.
Frank Foti with East Wind is all loaded and ready to depart, on this cool and wet Earth Day Run. Amy and Ethan Deptowicz get a ride from Joshua Frank on the loop of track behind the station aboard "Scrappy".
Caught Paul Emch with his Nickel Plate special train coming off Big Bend Bridge. Dick Clark at mid-span of Big Bend Bridge with his passengers.
John with his Snoopy train on Big Bend Bridge with this low angle shot. Rex Shriver with his switcher under a cover to protect it from the rain passes by the photographer.
Rick with another load of passengers passing thru Ridgeway. With East Wind's exhaust barking as she takes to the task of climbing the grade at Mackey's Run the passengers are all smiles.
Scott Hewis with the Park engine emerging from the Truss Bridge with a full load of passengers. Paul passing thru the bridge on his way to the grade at Mackey's Run and the rain has stopped.
Dick coasting down Hilde Hill and about to pass thru Fern. Scott coasting down the grade to Gulch with a new load of passengers.
Frank with East Wind's wheels clickity-clacking over the crossing as he starts down the grade at Hilton. Dick at the same location with Lew Fowler as conductor and a train load of passengers.
John passing over Big Wash Bridge as he approaches Hilton and look at the fog behind him. Paul opposite the steaming bays as he takes the switches to put his train on the main line.
Ken Brooks at the controls of Richard Sales electric powered cab at Horrendous. Wally Pausch running the NKP engine giving Paul a chance to stretch his legs and enjoy a cup of coffee.
Skip Frank with his Columbia steam engine named "Lynn" as she thunders over the road crossing for the Park access road. Frank at Horrendous with whistle blowing and Cornelius Gould as conductor.
What? Bill Deptowicz is on the wrong side of the lens of the camera and enjoying a run with Snoopy. Kitty Shriver is passing over Festival Bridge as she approaches Thorn behind the station.
Bill coming into the station behind a steamer...can you tell by the smoke? Jake Knox looked more like a semaphore hanging from the tree but got the high five from Cornelious as he rode into the station.
Pam Znidar directed the passengers off the trains and next to her is our reconditioned fare box. Caught Emmy Pausch working as a conductor as the train she was on pulled up in front of the station.
Jerry Bell as engineer on the GP38 and Emmy as conductor wait for Roy Harris instructions to the passengers. Frank and Cornelius as conductor leaving the station in this overhead shot.
The end of the line of riders is in sight with only a few passengers waiting for a ride. Ken and Wally at the station as the end of the public run is near.
John and Ethan going for a ride with Amy at the controls of Snoopy after the public run was over. Skip backs "Lynn" up the incline to the steaming bays to prepare her for going home.
With the signals turned on for two way running, Dick takes some members for a ride. Jake Knox at the controls running Snoopy with a train load of passengers.
Richard Sales sure looks relaxed running his train as he approaches Drudgery. What can I say.....Ethan agrees, it's the end of the run today.
