Hello Triennial Live Steamers,
I would like to see if there are any Moguls and TenWheelers coming to the Triennial who would be interested in putting together a multi-engine train consisting of four to seven cars per engine. Such a train could easily get to be 50+ cars (plus the engines) in length. We did this back at the 2006 Triennial and had a great time. One of the interesting things about such a lash-up is that the power of the engines in the lash up is greater than their power individually. We would have to get clearance from the powers-to-be and run at a date and time that would not hamper others on the mainline. If you are interested, please reply back to this thread.
Thanks,
Woody Lewis
