I understand that the tickets are going fast, so get yours while you can.
425 will be pulling other cars then just the cars listed. it will be like a photo freight special. I was on the last photo special, of this kind back in 1994, when 425 pulled 40 coal loads down to North Reading Yard.

I was on that Minersville trip too. 14 years ago? How time flies.

Too bad I'll be elsewhere that weekend. Maybe if they sell this one out they'll add a second date?
