Cass Railfan Weekend 2008 - The Log Train

Shot over the course of two days during the Cass Scenic Railroad's annual Railfan Weekend hosted by the Mountain State Railroad & Logging Historical Association, we follow a recreated log train up the mountain to Spruce, where it meets up with a pair of Western Maryland vintage diesels.

Special thanks to Walter Scriptunas II for some additional footage from onboard the log train.
