The inspection train came up to Danbury on 10/16/10 at about 3:00 PM with Bl-20 130 leading north and Ge Genesis 204 training south. Here's a pic I took while volunteering at the museum as I do every saturday.

Last Saturday (10/16/10) There was train service on the Danbury Shuttle using a turned around set and Bl-20 #129. Also the Inspection train dropped by with Bl-20 #130 on one end and Ge GEnesis #204 on the other end.
