Mega-outstanding!
Now, TWO complete steam trains can run all day(s), no waiting.  ;D

Dec 21 edit: 52's part is now known...THREE trains ran trouble-free.
Incredible.
There needs to be a yearly Railroad Academy Award.
WW&F wins 2015!

Wayne,
That was entirely unexpected. Thank you for advising, and thank Joe for setting up WMTW

"It may be 2015 where you come from, but here it's 1910".  I was watching WMTW live as they broadcast it, and Norm Karkos said right after that finished airing "What a great sound bite that is."  It would make a great additional tagline for our promotions.

Wow. They did an outstanding job. Very well done. I will be sending them a thank you letter for their visit and episode. I look forward to getting them back for future stories.

Also, the video on Channel 8s facebook page has been shared almost 50 times as of tonight. The down side, lots of people seem to believe #9 was the engine sitting in Waterville. :(

Just saw WMTW's Sean, the cameraman at the railroad last week.  I thanked him profusely.  It will air again tonight he says.
