Cab ride in D&RGW #340 of a double header around the park. This was an extra fare during the 2008 NMRA National convention.

I remember working this event. I believe I was on engine 41 that morning. I wish we did this more often. That was an awesome day. :)

This is one of the few amusement parks that hasn't ruined a beautiful piece of machinery. I can see it if they started with a pile of junk but if it's worth it, they should keep them how they were designed.

I remember this day.

I love the C-19 class 2-8-0's. 130 years old and it keeps going, a sign that it's built to last.

id love to see these locos up at the DS or C&T but i live in california so its nice havving them here to haha. how much do they double head like this

[@silverjinglebobspur1]

Awesome, totally awesome. I don't remember which engine it was, but it came from Salida, Colorado. There was a time, a war time, that engine used wood and coal. My great grandmother through a series of circumstances became the engineer. She later retired from SP as a conductor. In 1969 she and I were visiting there. The engineer was her former fireman. They rode that engine together for the last time. It's so awesome seeing it again. Thank you.

I think they double head it because it was with the NMRA convention.

[@strokedmustang66]
