last weekend I road along in the f-3's as an escort on the Great Gatsby express. It was a 1920's themed excursion with costumed characters, period cars,and 20's music. Our job aboard the train is to look after the locos, help out the crew, and trouble shoot any problems that may come up during the trip.

First off I took some pics from the cab as we waited to get the all clear as the regular Steamtown train was getting ready to pick up it's passengers.    

   

Once that train was out of the way we backed up to clear the switch that would bring us over the the platform

Here's a few pics from along the line to Goudsboro, our first stop.

   

   

It's a good climb out of Scranton east to Gouldsboro but we made it there right on time.
