    This was around the time that I visited the EBT as a kid. Can't wait to go back! Just restoring the 5 miles to the Colgate grove wye will be impressive, but imagine if the new foundation can start rebuilding the other 30 miles worth of rails. It could be the East coast's answer to the Durango & Silverton or Cumbres & Toltec!

    Man poor 17. She's creaking and all slow. Hopefully she's better if EBT restores her soon. Can't wait for 16 to return.

      I read its a Crosby 5 inch 3 chime

      Sounds like an overblown Crosby on 17. Once it warmed up during the tribute it sounded normal.

    Your video from October of 2017 was recommended by RUclips from another video I was watching and I’m very glad. I subscribed and went back to the beginning and was mesmerized by the quality and detail of your layout and your skills to frame each of the videos you posted. You are truly an artist and it shows in the build and weathering on your layout and the videos. I have caught up now and was surprised to see that the first video I saw of yours was apparently the last one of your layout. Does the layout still exist and what plans do you have for it? Will you be posting any more videos of it?

    To think this group has put 5 steam locomotive back in service, in 2001 is heart warming
    I wish your group continued grand results and continue progress even now in 2024
