Here's today's video - another rather quiet day in the yard. Four days left to the season now.

After a lengthy time at the ashpit 489 went to the tank and back to the engine house as a couple of photographers were in the yard enjoying the brilliant late afternoon sun. 489 sounded out of sync moving about. There were 5 days to go, now 4.

Well as I sit here in Cresson, PA I am enjoying a lot of NS action but with these threads I can still get my C&TS fix. Good video captures there Larry S. and Larry G. always good picture captures.

Thanks Sharon! Enjoy your time around Cresson. How's the color around there? I remember one year at nearby horseshoe curve that was very colorful. Enjoy your trip.

From what I have seen today, a little past peak but still good for backgrounds. It is cold here with a front moving through this afternoon which dropped the temperature into the 40's.
