Trip To Strasburg RR 06-18 - 06-19
#1
Well everyone we got here around noon today and got to see thomas the tank engine. We are planning on going to the museum tomorrow so there will be alot of pictures for you all to view. My daughter did however get a few thomas trains and a shirt. She was in heaven when she seen thomas coming down the tracks and was even more excited when she got her thomas trains and shirt. Some tell me little girls should not play with trains, that they should play with dolls. Well my daughter likes trains and that is it I tell them LOL. This is my first time being down here and I am amazed. But going to head out and check the area out. Have a SAFE & WONDERFUL WEEKEND EVERYONE.

Have a great time there, and make sure you check out the museum across the street. It's well worth it.

#4800 looks worse every time i see it, and 603 isn't fairing much better. Hopefully they'll both get put together soon. I wonder how those DD1s are holding out as well.

I know what you mean GEC. The DD1's are about in the same shape. Although PRR E6 #460 is in the shops right now getting her firebox and a few other things restored. Don't know to much more about it though.

Bummer, this week coming up, starting the 29th, is Reading Railroad Days and in the museum will be the huge modular layout from the RCT&HS. Exhibit runs from Wednesday through Monday, July 4. I'll be there all week.
