Today the Iron Horse Central of Chisago City, Minnesota fired up 0-4-0 No. 4 for a private event, a reunion of Vietnam vets (IHC owner Richard Thompson served in this unit). Temperatures were fairly mild, and the locomotives steamed well. Four trips were made around the loop, and everyone had a great time.

The only public steam-up day scheduled for this year is October 8th, when No. 4 will pull "Autumn Leaf Special" trips. Mark your calendars!
