Matt's trains that siding has always been there. I visited this railroad 3 times and it's been there ever since. It's main focus is to be a run around track for either the steam or diesel locomotives to couple back to the train for the return trip back to New Hope.

Actually he's talking about a different siding. They have two sidings now. One is Lahaska, the turn around point, which you're talking about, the other is a brand new one between Reeder Rd and Aquetong, its sole purpose is to allow a southbound train to pass the northbound.

Great video and drone footage. 27:21 I don’t remember there ever being a passing siding there. When was that added? Can’t wait to see her and that 6 chime in person

They finished putting ballast in a few days before the first excursion, so it is brand new

That's how KZbinrs get paid. I make barely anything from KZbin, but every couple of months enough to put fuel in the tank helps pay for these trips little by little so I can go and film and make these videos for the good people of KZbin. If waiting 5 seconds to skip an ad, or the dreaded 30 second unskippable ad is too much of an inconvenience for you to watch my videos, I really don't care.
