Did anyone out there participate in the Ohio Central Photo specials this weekend? If so, how did they go? Where did they operate to/from? Did 6325 operate or is she still down with mechanical problems? How about 1293. Did she participate? Inquiring minds want to know!

... appears to have consumed all information on this trip and the Bicentennial Special around the Medina Loop. Ah Well, the drugstores will catch up with the film around Wednesday.

PS: mighty fine looking E-unit stuck on the ballast train (inside joke)

I shot the Sunday trip, and 6325 put on a fine show.

The crew (on their own time) had done much brush clearing, and we had some really nice runbys. On Sunday there were some mid-day clouds, but we lucked out with nicely lit runbys during the morning and afternoon.

Ask John Craft what his favorite runby of the day was...(it WAS a good one).

And I shot Saturday--also a fine show. 6325 was gleaming, the sky was flawless blue, Mr. Jerry Jacobson, his steam department man Jason Johnson, and all their colleagues at the Ohio Central were wonderful hosts--what's not to love?

It was the first time I'd seen a 4-8-4 in steam since I was a teenager--LONG overdue.
