I was amazed to see myself in the cab of the steam engine as the fireman! . He used a tiny, hand held GoPro camera for that footage.

And while thinking of it, I have not seen mention of this. They are constructing a siding at the top of the Mountain, including building a new switch (one of the powered switches), and can only assume this is to add capacity, as well as operational improvements.
They ran Steam at 8:30, 2 Trains at 9:30 & 10:30, 3 trains at 11:30, 2 at 12:30, and 3 again at 1:30. I left after that.
