"Evening Paradise" train on the WMSR | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Back on Friday, June 9, I found that there would be an Evening Train to Frostburg, leaving Cumberland at 6 pm. I hoped that the light would be good at the site of the upper slide repair near switch number 9.

So with my best walking shoes applied, I walked from the trail head at Frostburg to switch 9, and as I hoped the light was pretty good. I got there in plenty of time, and waited. And waited. Finally, at about five to seven, I spotted a headlight! As always, click on the photos for the larger views.

Here she comes!

Rolling out to the "Meadow", in sweet evening light.

Here's the good view.

Well worth the walk down to this site. Can't wait to see the 1309 here!

Nice! I need to get back up that way soon.

Thanks again for letting me use your photo on my QSL card. Got lots of positive remarks about it.
