Looking at the new turning track in progress and at right the area of the downed Tulip tree
Jeff Stanek with his steamer painted similar to the SP Daylight scheme and Bob Beardslee preparing to raise steam in his loco
George Burens SW1500 and one of Gherin Johnsons engines a GP9 in the yard behind our station. Rex Shriver's electric RMI Switcher also in the yard w/Jon Jaros's Auto-Max behind
Jon Jaros's brought his Northern thats under construction and set it on a flat car.That's one heavy frame.
Ron Trenhaile with his scratch-built F40ph coming in to the station. Roger Harnish, laying down, is working on one of his cars in the yard
Marie and Ted Nyland on their interurbans coming into the station. Jeff Stanek is on the steaming bays working on a problem that developed with the engine

Dave Harnish on the American pulling out of the station yard. Ron Trenhaile's F40ph, the CU&SS in the station yard just waiting to roar to life
Some of the detail and painting on Ron's engine and the CU&SS Railroad's Motto!
Taking the Short Line to the newly completed bypass around Dirt Siding. Having to wait for mainline traffic (Ron's F40ph) at Zip Junction before we can proceed
Dirt Siding is straight ahead so we'll take the switch to the left. As we approach the mainline we have to yield to traffic. That's Dave Schweitzer with his switcher engine ahead
Ted and Marie on their interurban leaving Mackey's Run and I hear steam chuffs approaching. Roger and his American are going by and I'm clear to run on the mainline
Dave Schweitzer and Bill Besselman on Dave's 2 1/2" scale electric switcher. The Nylands heading for horrendous with their gas powered interurbans
