Operating Session Highlites
This period we take a look at some of our hard working employee's from the last operating session in April. This session marked the Moose Valley's first operating season. Many thanks to all of those who participated.
Millway Western President Bill Gingrich takes the throttle on
hot Moose Valley train TV-10.
Bill's climb through the ranks of train operations earned him the prestigious position he
enjoys
as engineer on today's northbound. Bill is admiring that fine 1963 GE product on the
head end,
but he would much rather be in the cab of his friends train....
Jon Beers is taking a trio of Alco C-425's out of Berkeley
Springs for duty on MV20-U.
He's entering Stoner Mountain on his way to Berkeley Junction.
Jeff Adams and Rick Gantz monitor the ascension of another heavy
coal train up
fabled Gantz Grade, on the Moose Valley mainline. The train, just off the B&O
must struggle against the 8% grade.
Speaking of ascensions, it's that time of year to remember the
resurrection of Christ,
and some other things we'd like to have back as well.
This special "Easter Bunny" train carries the fallen
flags of the Penn Central,
Western Maryland, B&O and Chessie System. Of course there had to be a
Moose Valley egg (that's the Easter Bunny)
