I was wondering what is going on here in 2004, will there be steam run. And what diesels do they have running. Do thay still have the FPA4, RS3, and RSD5? -justin qcmrs18@yahoo.com |

As far as I know (meaning they can't hide them THAT well), all three Alcos have left the property--last on the Liberty Limited dinner trains out of York, Pa., now elsewhere. The WMSR still uses one or two GP30s as diesel power; you might remember one painted with an Orioles lofo and one with a Redskins logo. LNER4472-NOSPAM-@bcpl.net |

I think at least two of the Alcos ended up in Ohio, on the Cuyahoga Valley RR. That was after the Liberty Limited dinner train. prr8404@aol.com |

As far as I know, the 734 should be running next year. The Alcos are long gone adn there are 2 operational GP30's on the property. One is done in a WM "speed lettering" scheme, and the other is dolled up "Ravens" with a lovely (ugh) purple stripe. |

The FPA4 that was painted as Western Maryland 305 is our #6771,The FPA4 that was painted as B & O 800 is also here, we have left her painted as a B & O engine because that is the former owner of our trackage. The RSD-5 is stored on the CVSR for it's owner, but it does see service once or twice a year.The RSD-5 now is painted in its as delivered CNW paint scheme. B.
