Due to the quality of this one, watching in HD may be a good idea.
Motorcar run on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railroad, from the old Mineral Bluff, GA wye to McCaysville, GA., in our ex-C&EI Farimont ST-2, which was recently restored last summer.

Yeah, they usually range from $2500 - $4500, though they seem to be on the latter end of the spectrum more often. However, most of the good open cars usually go for $1000 - $1500; NARCOA's "for sale" page is generally the best place to find a good deal.

Yeah, I know; they had just finished the ultrasound on the boiler, I don't even know if they were able to get much further on her than that. And you're right, it would probably be for the best if the TVRM acquired her, but they are almost finished with the 630, 722's sister, so a SRR 2-8-0 will be operating sometime this year. Fortunately for the TVRM and the 4501, funding for the 4501 was provided by a private individual, and she is currently stripped-down and awaiting an ultrasound.

I haven't, though I want to. We are almost finished with the restoration of an ex- Core of Engineers A-4D now, and that will be the car that we travel with; the ST-2 is a great car, and she is an excellent runner, but I don't want to put many miles on her, and, as I'm sure you know, as she is a popper, things can go awry fairly easily without much provocation.
