Christmas Cab Ride Invite

co614 · **Posted:** Wed Dec 01, 2010 10:18 am

Hello all,

Well here we are again sneaking up on the Christmas season. I'm pleased to say that I'll once again have the pleasure of running Baldwin # 40 on the NH&I RR ( http://www.newhoperailroad.com) from Dec. 12-23 and would welcome any fellow Rypners who would like to join me for a cab ride.

If you're interested please PM me and I'll share my duty days/times etc. with you.

A reminder that these are Santa and North Pole trains and they run on a VERY slow ( 8-10 mph) schedule so as to give Santa sufficient time to visit all the kidees. I'm told that our reservations are way ahead of last year at this time so maybe things are getting better!!

For those I don't get to see, my fond best wishes for a wonderful Christmas and a healthy, steam filled 2011!!

Ross: Can I have a "rain-check", and swap my ride in 40's cab, for one in 614's?

If you accept the rain-check, will you accept one from me too? :-)

Sorry guys I can't do the swap thing. So far 12 Rypners are lined up to ride and I look forward to seeing each of you.

Best wishes to all for a blessed Christmas and a healthy, steam filled 2011.
