Rough & Tumble: 60th Annual Thresherman's Reunion

We visit the Rough & Tumble Engineers Historical Association during the Annual Thresherman's Reunion, for some neat steam action! We'll get to see the 'Little Toot Railroad', operating steam tractors, gas-powered tractors, gas-powered stationary equipment (such as water pumps), and of course, the Shay Railroad. So sit back, and enjoy the hustle and bustle of this annual event.

I pass this place all the time when I go to the Strasburg railroad and it never seems to be open.

@WSOR10C

On one occasion, this same whistle was on 425.

Look for vids of the October 18 2008 trip of 425.

Thats the same RDG 6-chime.

(I should know... its mine.) ;-}

Thanks Adam.

Ahh just the sound of the bell and whistle from the Shay at R&T make me feel like the Reunion is just around the corner

[PRR9000]

Nice video Adam. I've got to get down there next year when I go to Strasburg, since it's so close.

[NWRRSteamPower]

Is this right off of route 30? Maybe I could go HERE along WITH Strasburg next year and take a video! :)
