Invasion trackage did NOT look like this.

At least in most places:-)

Thanks for the pictures. Looks as fun as ever; sorry we missed it!

This withdrawal is terrible. I need a fix.

We missed you, Bruce, Jean, Ric & Jan. We would have liked to see Jon back again, and some of you other guys as well! We had a new face, Tom Legel, from Pennsylvania, fairly close to Ken. Good times were had by all, as always.

Cheers everyone!

Proof that Father Fred does run trains, one advantage of riding with Fred is he educated us in how to re rail large scale riding engines. Not only did we learn but gained considerable experience in how to do it. Thanks to the Finger Lakes Live Steamers for a great day.
