John Deptowicz with his Snoopy train and his load of passengers heads out from the station on the mainline. Greg Guy and George Metts are loading trains today and here Joe Vasko starts out on his first run of the day.

Dick Clark pulls away from the station with his SW1500 as Greg waits for Don Speidel to move forward to load his train. As Don waits for Greg to load his train Skip Frank moved up to the loading area with his steam engine "Lynn".

Don advances the throttle on his engine as he pulls away on Track 2 with his passengers. With the exhaust from Lynn streaming over their heads, Skip and his passengers pass by Short.

Frank Foti with East Wind has just passed by Short on his way towards Drudgery with Judy Oscker as his conductor on the rear. Ken Brooks passes by the same location as he follows a few minutes behind Frank with his passengers.

Paul Zorko at Short will soon be rumbling over the grade crossing for the Park Access Road. Rick Nagy with the GP38 as he passes through Drudgery with Frank Smoley as his conductor.

John as he approaches Hemlock on the Snoopy train with his smiling passengers waving to the photographer. Joe passing through Hemlock will soon be crossing over the Big Wash Bridge as he passes through Hilton.

I wonder if Dick is running as an extra with the freight because of the boxes behind him as he passes through Hemlock with his passengers. Don was next to come along and as he is crossing over the Big Wash Bridge his passengers are all smiles.

Skip as he starts down grade with his circus train at Hilton with Lynn on the crossing for the branch line. Frank at the same location but from the other side of the track.

Rick as he ascends the grade up from Gulch Bridge is passing through Gulch as he heads towards High Creek. Dick coasting down the grade with his trainload of passengers as he approaches Gulch with Rick on the adjacent track as he climbs the grade.

John with his passengers on the grade up to Gulch after passing over the Gulch Bridge which is behind him. Don coasting down grade as he heads towards Fern has just passed Hilde Hill.

Mike Harkleroad as he approaches the Truss Bridge with his passengers. A few minutes later Frank with East Wind came by and will soon to be on the grade crossing for the Park Access Road.

Scott Hewis gives a wave as he passes by Mackey's Run with Frank Smoley as his conductor. Paul passing through Pandora on his way towards Shoe and the Covered Bridge with his passengers.

John with the Snoopy train as he's about to enter into Jonas whale... Not really just the Covered Bridge. As he nears the end of his run Skip passed over Cider Bridge on his way back to Shriver Station.

A few minutes later Ken came by the same location which is across from the Covered Bridge. Frank on the curve through Pandora as he heads towards Shoe with his trainload of passengers.

Rick at Pandora after coming off the Big Bend Bridge as he heads towards Shoe and the Covered Bridge. Ken having passed through Zip Junction has to pass over Cider and Festival Bridge before he gets back to Shriver Station.

Bill Deptowicz with the Snoopy train as he passes through Zip Junction on his way towards Cider Bridge. Richard Sales as he emerges from the Covered Bridge with his powered rider cars, as you can see there's no engine in front of him.

Joe having passed through Horrendous is on his way towards Zip Junction and there is another train behind him. Back at the station Ken and Bill wait on track 1 while Scott on track 2 waits for his train to be loaded.

Rick starts his next run with his trainload of passengers as he heads out of the station with Lew as his conductor. No Scott hasn't been waiting this long to get loaded, this is a different run as he leaves the station.

While Joe waits to be loaded, Frank with East Wind starts moving after Greg loaded his passengers on the train. East Wind is starting to behave by giving off less smoke from his exhaust stack as he takes to the task of moving his load towards the mainline track.

Joe looks over his shoulder to check out how the passengers are loaded before he departs from the station. Greg has just finished loading John's train and the passengers are all smiles in anticipation of the run ahead.
