I took the trip in 2014 and had the time of my life.  Glad to see that Mike has run another trip today.

What kind of a fund raising trip is this?

Mike operates charters to raise funds for his restoration of the former CB&Q Twin Cities Zephyr veteran Silver View.

Well, these passengers may not look too happy at the moment, but that's because they just got the news that the Cubs had lost another game.  But this may have been the only time on the trip where everyone didn't have a big smile on their face since, as burlingtonjohn notes, the passengers all had a great day riding with former CB&Q Passenger Department employee Mike Abernathy.
