A long holiday weekend and the chance to play with trains...isn't it great. Our monthly Open House fell on the Saturday of labor Day weekend, September 2, 2006. We had a great time and so did our guests.

Our regular monthly Open House is the first Saturday of the month...come & see our progress.

An old Clinchfield is pulling a local mixed freight of CSX cars. A bit of coal, a few boxcars and even more around the bend. Another fine example of weathering by Brion Boyles.
