... albeit not that intentionally.

From their Facebook page:

Quote:
12, 1, & 2 PM tomorrow. Strasburg Rail Road will be operating the Plymouth and a coach tomorrow while work on Car 10's transmission is completed.


Whether it's Plymouth 1 or 2 is not specified.

Should be Plymouth #1. I think #2 is still in the shop (took a tour during a break in the Lerro charter last month). Mr Anderson or any other SRC folk might know better than me though.

Mike, #1 will be used for these trips, just like back in the old days. #2 is not equipped with air brakes and as such would not be used to move over the mainline.

They're operating with #1 today, too. If you must, you might want to call the RR and see if they run this way tomorrow as well.

In a recent Twitter post (replied to me), The RR said that the LO&S car has been "less than cooperative) with fixing the transmission. So who knows what the motive power will be through Friday...
