Morning preparations: There seems to be some problem with the tipple cams this morning. We may or may not have their feed for the train.

The power to the tipple was probably shut off in error.

Possibly Rich, but it will stream for a short period, at times, when I refresh.

?? I can't even get that. I hope it's just the power switch, there has been enough equipment failures already.

The link to the tipple is down. Probably a power issue, but I don't yet have confirmation.

Wasn't a power issue. Problem with the network. It's fixed now.

Thanks again [and again] Jason. With all the Florence action up here in NC, the Cams were really missed this morning. Ed Morris

I've always enjoyed watching that "Baton" Broom Twirler young man. I've seen him twirl that broom many times, and always enjoy his performance! We should have Roger Hogan do a close up video of him! Neat, and he's one of a kind!
