After the Empress posed for almost an hour for photo's, she backed way up up of sight so she could get up a good head of steam and then came barrelling thru on the farther track to everyone's delight.
The feeling I had as she rushed by me was indescribable. And as I watched her chuff into the distance, a tear sprang into my eye, which wasn't caused by the sun.
What a wonderful day - gorgeous locomotive, beautiful summer weather, and a good time had by all. So glad I made this trip!!!! Thanks CPR!!!!!
