Three electric powered engines on the sidings, George Davidsons' red electric cab, Rex Shrivers' RMI switcher and George Metts' Scrappy. The Hudson that Karl Losely brought is on a steaming bay. |

Joe Laskowski brought his beautifully detailed electric interurban. Jonathan Shaffer watches as the Pacifics' safety lifts at the station as Frank Foti tends to the fire. |

Another view with the activity at the station. Kevin Harris and Jon Jaros were putting the gold lettering on the club's passenger car which will finally finish the cars construction. |
 |

The clubs' car was named in honor of Clyde & Anne Bleil, Clyde being one of the charter members from 1977. Jon and Kevin working on the other side of the car with the lettering. |

The Hudson on the switch at the station with the firebox glowing. Robbi Haines, Marcel Uhrich and Marty McGuan at the train with the empty string of passenger cars. |

Time to load up and head out as Marcel checks out passengers loading. Franks' Pacific waits as Dicks' passenger cars are coupled to the engine for the next run. |

 |
Three steamers at the coal tipple, the Pacific, Hudson and the Baldwin switcher. A quarter view on of the engines. Notice the different color of smoke due to the type of coal they are using. |
