the gentleman standing in a straw hat and white "T" shirt at 8:15 is i believe T parkinson. hasn't changed abit since i saw him as a kid. the watertower was built by the same man from henry's loop. it used to be by the loading station at the old track.
the station at 4:54 was part of a section in the old track called henry's loop. it was in a section called "the hole" that branched off "the back 40", came out behind the steaming bays, and then tied back into "the back 40" sorta like a reverse loop.
the uprise track around 3:49 was at the copley track then too. men like Jeff Stanek, George Santin, and Brian and John Keims rode smaller engines on that track. glad to see they still run them
i used to belong to the NEOLS back when they were still in Copley, OH. i was a junior member from 1985 thru to 1995. the gentleman that speaks in the beginning i believe is T Parkinson. i still know many of the original members.
This is in Medina, Ohio. I've gone on the train a few times with my Moms club. If you're ever in the Cleveland/Akron area, it's worth a drive. It's about an hour drive from Cleveland. Check their website though to see when they're doing public runs, though, if you actually do want to go sometime. They're actually doing public runs Oct. 16 and 17th-the last public runs of the year.

"They mow the lawn here?"
(in response to horn) "That scared me!"
"This is taking us on a long ride!"
