Post subject: Night Photo Shoot Phillipsburg, Nj. Up Date for 2006

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi all,
I was talking to Pete at the Western Maryland Photo Freight Special on Monday the 17th. and he told me that he is doing another photo special in November, the weekend before Thanksgiving. This is with Locomotive # 142 an 2-8-2 on the former Bel Del of the Pennsylvania Railroad. I was to the last one back in September and it was great!
He would like for people to come dressed in clothing of the 1940 `s

I was talking to Pete on the phone yesterday and he told me that night photo special has been canseled! The reason is there is not enough coal and the locomotive has been winterized for the winter. But he did tell me there will be a Springtime Photo Frieght Special and on rare millage too. in the spring there will be four more miles added to the line, so it will go down as far as Rigglesville, Nj.

Hi All,
As I said I`ll keep you all up to date on this subject,

Heres that latseted. We are looking to do some newer photo shoot with, one antque 1948 Farmall Cub tractor also we are hoping for uses of the 1930 Ford Pickup Truck. Now theres a good chance that there will be four more miles of track replaced down to Rigglesville, Nj. if that happens We will be able to do photos with an old PRR phone booth and a few bridges.

We are still asking for people to come dressed in 1940`s clothes. That would make it neat.

This Picture is from last years photo freight special, The Red lantern is mind it`s a real PRR



Stay tune for more up dates.

Len.
