I spent Saturday at the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society Members Day Open House. Suffice it to say it was fantastic! Everything from the crew, events, activities and food was a class act. As a member my friends and I got to go for a cab ride. Once we got back to stop a downpour ensued and we spent the about a half hour inside the cab with the crew to stay dry until the rain stopped.

The engine looks great with its freshly painted smoke box and of course the Mars Light! I also approve of the temporary change in identity to raise awareness of the Headwaters Junction project. Non-railfans are going to be so confused. Can't wait to see it at Steam in the Valley!

I have two videos to share -

And a nice set of photos too many to post on here but check out this link for the rest of them -

Another excellent job, Adam.

Can't wait to see her on our "home" rails in a few weeks.

Folks:  if you haven't ever been to Steam in the Valley, please consider doing so.  You'll get to see or ride behind a magnificent steam engine running through a National Park, parallel to a river with wooded hills in the background. 

There is also plenty of other stuff to see and do.  Google "Peninsula, Ohio", "Hale Farm and Village", "CVSR", or "Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad" if you get a chance.

The B&O Roundhouse/Midwest Railway Preservation Society is literally 15 minutes from the northern most stop of the Steam In The Valley trips (Rockside Station).

I'll also take donations for the "Give a Cleveland Cavalier a Shirt to Wear to the Championship Parade" foundation.......

Hope to see many of you next month.

-Tony
