OUR BRIDGES "OUT OF SERVICE" UNTIL REPAIRED. SO UNTIL IT'S REPAIRED, OUR REGULAR WEEKEND TRAINS ONLY GO AS FAR AS THE LOOSE CABOOSE EMPORIAUM (8 Miles) TO THE WEST AND BENNETT'S HONEY FARM/PIRU TO THE EAST. THIS WILL NOT AFFECT ANY OF OUR STEAM TRAIN RIDES and/or CABOOSE/DIESEL CAB RIDES DURING "RAILFEST 2017"! Date: 04/27/17 20:28 Re: Fillmore & Western Ry. "Railfest 2017".
