Western Railroad Discussion > Sunday in Fairbanks

We spent the day doing wekend stuff, including going to Pioneer Park and riding the Tanana Valley Museum line.  Although they were running their 'fake' steam engine, it was a nice ride and we got the deluxe tour when the folks there noticed my BLE hat.  Inside the musem was the jem, Tanana Valley 0-4-0 Porter #1, built 1899, S/N 1972,  and in running condition (but not today, come back tomorrow...).

Later in the day, I made a run by the ARR shops and yard; it was quiet as can be with just SD70MAC 4328 idling outside the shops.

Tomorrow we hit the road for Skagway!
