Joe Fox replied:Nice video Steve. I am glad to be albe to see what went on at Albion, since I wasn't able to go. Do they plan on running a tourist operation up there, like what we do down at the museum?

Ira Schreiber replied:Very nice video. It makes me homesick for Maine.

Dave Buczkowski replied:Steve;
Nice video. It was the first thing I opened this morning. I'm sure Carl will enjoy seeing and hearing his comment about recording!
Joe;
It would be great to run an historical (not tourist) operation some day. There appears to be between a quarter and a half mile of right of way which could be used if things were to fall right. What's needed is volunteers as Carl, Phil and Bruce can't do it all themselves. I have some ideas I will circulate when I have the time to get them all out.

Steve Smith replied:Thanks for the video, Steve. I loved that last scene with Carl!

James Patten replied:Steve, when I saw the steer I was expecting you to dub in Carl's voice at that point asking about the camera being on. However it works as is!
Stewart Rhine replied:Steve, Good video, it shows what I missed. Thanks for posting it. I like James' comment - wonder what Carl would think of his voice coming from the steer...
Next year we should take the handcar up. You can show the crew putting a shine on the rails.
Stephen Hussar replied:James, it was either "moo" or "bull"

Glenn Christensen replied:Hey Steve,
LOVED THE VIDEO!!!
Two questions:
1) Did you get a signed release from the bull?
2) Who's gonna tell Carl he really wasn't edited out?
Grins and Best Regards,
Glenn
Joe Fox replied:Steve Zuppa,
Only you would have the strength, and ambition to pump that hand car back and forth 487 times. I would only want to do it, at most, 10 times, since the track isn't very long, and even if I did do it that many, I would lose count after the first 2, because that is as high as I can count. Ha Ha Ha. Steve Hussar, Are you going to be at the museum this weekend, to make a video of the Victorian Christmas like you did last year? I thought that last years Victorian Christmas video was great.
Joe
Stephen Hussar replied:Thanks all -- glad you liked it!
