Having repaired the damaged track , the line was opened up. A couple of trains were sent thru to test out the track work.

Had a chance to get out on the railroad and take a few pics this afternoon.

A few weeks ago, before our Denver trip, I got rid of the table and fire bowl to allow views of the railroad from our back porch. These shots were taken from the porch…

Beautiful!

I have a question though? I thought white flags were like excursions ? Not challenging only asking.

[JRad (Jon Radder)]

White flags indicate an Extra. A train that is not on the schedule. EBT always ran white flags in excursion service. The white classification lights should indicate a scheduled train that is broken into sections. In my case; I just like to have them on for show.

I thought green flags or lights were the color for sections, all but the last section which carried no markers.
