Great photos, and what a burger huh?...Looks like a great event with nice weather...can't get much better....nice drivers on the ol' girl....

Thanks for posting, Andrew.  It's always good to see the little-viewed locations on different railroads.  I have memories of El Reno from a trip on the Rock Island Memphis-Tucumcari passenger train.

 

Do you know how they cook both sides of that hamburger?

What they do is put another metal plate on the top of it, it has sides on it, and they have this rack that spins, then they drop it back down on it.... the whole process is pretty slow... we watched them grease and heat up the two plates, walked around looked at the car show, then came back and they were putting the meat patty on it... they had the bun sitting on a rollback trainer... i should of took a picture of that! We left then to catch the trolly to see 844, by the time we got back the burger was gone!
