You're right Steamer 69. It's a good sign and not a bad looking engine.
I have been told that they are running quality ads on some of the Boston TV stations as well.
However, I still can't imagine someone with so little foresight and intelligence that they would make the decision to tear up the track on the west side and thus destroy the 5.42 mile loop.
Many tourist lines would kill to have a 5 and a half mile loop on private property to run their trains on and these jokers destroy that.
Until the full loop is restored, the sidings put back down, a water tower installed, the Cranberry Jct station rebuilt, the bypass track put back in, these people are nothing but vandals. Destructive vandals. They're a step below regular vandals who at least have the sense to destroy someone elses property. These vandals are so confused and incompetent that they destroy their own property.
So, while it is good to see steam down there, the place is still trashed, those running it are vandals and should be seen as such, until they prove otherwise.
In fact, those railfans who do visit should convey something like the following to any employees that you talk to.
"I remember this place as a kid, it was great, it's really sad what has happened to it"
