Hi Dave,
I found out from WW&F RR's website that they will have Victorian Xmas Train trip on Dec 22. I can't wait for it. I hope they will have snow there. (http://images/smiles/icon_smile.gif)Last year there was no snow on ground.  They had snow and it melt few weeks early.

Well have to go into Alice's room to get the steam powered snow making machine preped early this year.
But digging out the Farmers' Almanac, It says "20th-23rd. Snow from Pennsylvania, New York to Maine, then fair, very cold."
So far this year, the Almanac is more accurate then the local news.
