Greetings Everyone,
What a great way to spend a Saturday, With great friends running trains but not any trains Live Steam Trains
This weekend at the Lorain Co. Fairgrounds in Wellington, Ohio is a fair of all things Live Steam, Like farm equipment, Logging equipment and of Course Trains. A special thanks goes out to Jim Anderson for providing the track, and all of the other hard work to make this event happen.
I ran an Aristo Mike for almost 4 hours flawlessly and of course there were Moguls, Ruby's, A K27 and Shays and other large scale Live Steam offerings including Accucrafts newest 0-6-0 Switcher that was just released last week.
I will post a few pics here and then have a link to a folder so that you folks can few the rest if interested.
