Throughout the afternoon, our steam, diesel, and battery-powered locomotives delighted riders of all ages, carrying nearly 700 passengers around the railroad in just three and a half hours.

This amazing turnout wouldn’t have been possible without our dedicated volunteer crew and all of our wonderful visitors — thank you for making the day such a success!

On Saturday, September 13, 2025, our steam engines underwent their annual inspection. Each year, these locomotives are carefully checked with a hydro test and a detailed boiler inspection. The process involves filling the boilers with water and applying pressure to confirm that the tubes are tight and leak-free. While straightforward, this test is essential to ensuring that our engines remain safe, reliable, and ready for operation.

It’s hard to believe we’re already in September! This time of year always brings an extra level of excitement to our railroad and our hobby. Fall is when things really ramp up—our Fall Meet, Public Run Days, and several important projects are all on the calendar.

We’re looking forward to seeing everyone at one (or many!) of our upcoming events. To make it all possible, we’ve scheduled a few work days to get the railroad in top shape and to finish up some ongoing projects.

Even with storm clouds rolling in on Wednesday, Wes and Ken pressed forward on the much-anticipated East Loop repair. Their determination was evident as they worked through the drizzle, making steady progress on the critical section of track that has been a focal point of recent projects.
