The WW&F Railway, Maine Narrow Gauge, and Boothbay Railway Village are all partnering together for two weekends of steam in January. The dates are January 1/14 & 15, and 1/21 & 22.
125 year old WW&F #9 with her Russian Iron Boiler jacket, and Monson RR #3 will be the stars of the show, pulling different consists through out the weekend, and even a rare two engine train at some point during the weekend. There will be a series of photo run bys and train meets allowing a rare look into Maine's narrow gauge past. The session will start at 9 a.m. on Saturday and run till 4 p.m., and then on Sunday 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tickets are limited to 50 people, and are $400 per person for each weekend session. A special night time photo shoot is scheduled, and due to the limited spots available on that is an additional $75. A box lunch is available on Saturdays only for $15 supplied by a local vendor.
Potential bonuses may include a B&SR Box car if the restoration is completed in time, as well as our new turntable if it is able to be used at the time of the event.
Tickets are selling fast, so to ensure a seat reservations are highly recommended sooner rather than later. Please email us at [email protected] for more information or to make a reservation. All reservations must be made on or before 12/15/16, and any cancellation must be made on or before the same date, 12/15/16. All proceeds will help all three organizations continue restoration and preservation efforts as well as continued growth.
