Steam Up 06-23-02

06-23-02

In celebration of "G" Day 2002, Garden Railway Day, I held my second annual "G" Day Steam Up. All the local steamers turned out and we had a great time.

Bill stopped in with some new hand made cars he had acquired. Extremely nice details!

Dave had just finished rebuilding his American and it was looking sweet! Nice runner as well.

Fred brought out his modified Ruby for a few runs and I was happily running my newest purchase and second live steamer, a Roundhouse Billy.

Tom M brought over his Goeffbuilt Shay. Always a crowd pleaser.

Dave supplied a little extra shade and we were all set for the day.

As the day came to an end, some of the engineers were getting a little tired and it showed. "What do you mean I ran out of track?"
