Default My Lucky Day!
Wow! Because of the web site: www.railroadtown.ca/
Canadian National has invited me to go on a all day train trip in the cab of the #115 from Capreol Ontario to Foloyet and back. About a 400 mi. trip! And all the pictures I can take!!!!
The best part is that is that I am going on May 8th. my 52nd. birthday!


David

Pictures to follow!

In the cab - good!
On the buffers - bad!

Nice one - I'm green with envy, and I'm a steam buff.

Happy birthday in advance.

I'm green with envy! That sounds like great fun! Hopefully, someday I will get to do a similar journey (Utah Railway are you reading?) Gets lots of pictures, get lots of videos. And most importantly, have a Happy Birthday!
