When do the engines leave Mineral for Morton? And when do they make the return trip?

> When do the engines leave Mineral for Morton? They're scheduled to head over on Friday.> And when do they make the return trip?Sunday night. (Both schedules are subject to change, you know how steam is...Now, for the really fun part. You can ride a train from Morton to Mineral and return on Sunday. Yes, Morton to Mineral, and that includes the two tall trestles. Even better, at least part of the trip is tenatively planned as a doubleheader.
