Man I love this video especially the scene starting at 0:36. It's exactly the sort of scene I'd envisioned for my dream model railroad, right down to the details-a classic old high-hood Geep with a loud front-mounted bell, slow ditchlight flasher and sweet sounding horn, popping out of the woods rocking along some bumpy old branchline track.
He GOT Some Good news i was wrong They got the flues for Old NO.60 Hopefully the put them in and it is running by the middle of the summer. The only thing it needed was flues so ya
Poor old No. 60 has been out of commission for well over a decade. I heard it still needs its flues replaced. Do they have any idea when it'll be operational again? I was told by the engine crew about 5 years ago that funds were very tight, hence the rocky trackwork.
Sad ya think that, I personally don't work there, though I know a couple people that do and I am still hopeful for steam on the BRW in 2008 if not earlier. And I am thankful for all who are spending time workin on 60.
How ever many of these lines are there in the States? I've seen dozens on here now, all looking worth a visit! Maybe this line could use some help packing the track too, it looks like it might just be a tad rough!
could someone refer me to information on these events,,,,,,thank you very much

That train crew is very brave. Those tracks are all fill of weeds and look like they haven't been maintained very well

That must be a bumpy ride considering how much the engine was rocking.

Is that track worn or subsided.
Are the rail joints staggered?

You've gotta love that rural backwoods look, along with the 60 or 85lb rail and the rock n sway, timeless
