The Bay Coast Railroad's excursion branch, Bay Creek Railway, is reportedly starting excursion service this year over the tracks of the former Eastern Shore Railroad. Does anyone have information on the start date?
Also, I received word recently of the possibility of a chartered excursion on the Bay Coast Railroad between Pocomoke, MD, and Cape Charles, VA, for a minimum of 60 riders. Likely dates are May 20, July 29 or August 5, all Sundays. Mondays are also possible as their current plans are for Friday and Saturday regular service. The trip would include a light breakfast, lunch, and light dinner and would take about 12 hours. The price is not set but should be between $100-200 including the food. The train will be two cars - one 42-seat coach and one 40-seat diner, both made from interurban cars found in Texas and being rebuilt in Alabama. Has there been any further word on this one?
