Usually Scotty has posted this up in the past but he must be slipping this year.

We are on deck for Mauston at 4:15 pm.  
This will be our third season...   Chili  
For such a large diesel train, it sure gives out a lot of warm fuzzies...   Inlove

I recommend going.   Smile

I was sitting waiting to yard my train at the BRC Clearing yard in Bedford Park last Friday and that CP xmas train went by us heading north. It almost blinded me it was so bright. Startled me at first as it went around. Kinda neat seeing it during darkness.

Made it to Mason City last night and it was pretty cool! (Didn't ride a bike there though! Too much snow and ice for me!)

Had a good time, turn-out was probably down a bit but crowd was good.  A relatively warm evening compared to 24 hours earlier.  Band was great, Santa and Mrs. Santa have the moves, gifts to the Food Shelf looked gracious and the 'big' check from CP Railroad was very much appreciated.
