Fun Weekend

This past week end was was the annual NHRHTA Reunion, which also means an operation session on Chris Adams' Valley Railroad.  It is always a great time to visit with many people at reunion and to check out the full size trains at the Valley Railroad. I also to the opportunity of traveling down and back to the reunion to photograph Putnam and Plainfield CT. Chris posted photos of the ops session on his blog, which is listed to the right on my blog.

I rode the caboose with Chris down the Valley to the north end of the Old Saybrook Wye

Making sure the iron is in the correct position before heading out of the yard

Here is the south end of the line.  The neat part is I operated a local that traveled this
line on Chris's layout the night before.

Heading back north and riding in the cupola.
