I will not be attending this year either....... It's really a shame that people just can't get along. I read things here, and on FB and really chuckle hard at how people take the hobby WAAAAAAAAAY to seriously....... Like William Shatner said in the Saturday Night Live skit back in 89........ GET A ...

573 is the motive power for the trip to Notchland.........

Maybe he can have the lunatic from Holbrook come down and "hach" away at it? Anyhow.............. I would guess that something like this would run around 300K. That's a significant undertaking. Especially since he just finished the 3rd steamer for Edaville. But.......that being said..........

Looks like everyone here has figured out why....

a) I chase
b) don't shoot at most of the run by spots
c) haven't joined MBRRE

May see something different this year...........there was some discussion about changing it up a bit

If a single GP40 can pull 25 freight cars up the River Line into Deerfield,

I am going to guess that GP38 #252 or GP35 #216 can pull 9 passenger cars by themselves without any issue.

The F's are gone

Don't forget the Amtrak Museum train going as well

I was up in North Stratford last week. They were putting in the welded rail.

They had a ton of oil cars up at the shop and down the storage track.

Could be a while before they come back to Hazens.

The Cog currently has 2 serviceable steam locos....#2 and #9. They alternate between service schedules. I was told by a friend who works there that there is a plan in place to bring 10 in and do a total refurb. There is a Thomas/Percy/James hybrid that is being built for Thomasland at Boothbay. How ...

ALSO: New England is not the only place to see steam..... Take the 6 hour ride down to Black River and Western for a morning run with 60 Then go across the river (12 miles) to the New Hope and Ivy and hit 40 Then take a ride over to the Bel Del and ride behind 142 If you plan it right, you can see a...

Why is it "sadly" that 7470 is due for its boiler? How about: "THANKFULLY, a railroad has decided to do a refurbishment of a boiler instead of stuffing and mounting." It's pretty scary to read things over here these days. This site used to be informative and educational. Now it i...
