Iowa: How's the Iowa Traction doing these days?
Author: Lackawanna484

Thinking about a trip that would include the Iowa Traction Railway in Mason City Iowa.  How is it making out, does it operate daily or weekdays only, etc

Thanks

When I was there six months back, they were running daily, Monday - Friday. They start at dawn and can be done really fast if they don't have a lot of work. For certain, they will be done before lunch (maybe even before a coffee break). They have three motors parked along the line and drive to whichever one they are using first. If they are going to use more than one, they drive someone over to the other motor to get it started.
