I too was hoping that someone would give us some video of the ongoing event just like some people send out at Diamondhead !
Oh well, wish I was in Sacramento to view it live. Last year I had four segments on You Tube from that event so I'm hoping that someone with a video camera might do that this year too.
All the best, Peter.

Many thanks Charles!
Good to see the old gang, the people are good too

I may be getting a modest sized track loop. we are redoing our summer cabin and the contractor took out too much brush....

Well one of these days a posting of a video will work the first timeYoutube changed their embed code... you need to manually add the "http:" after pasting the embed code into the MLS box. There is one URL in the newer "iframe" code and two URL's in the old embed code where this manual addition must be done.

David that Jubilee is superb. It is one of my favourite locos, Ever since I saw them as a teen ager at Bellows Falls, when Steamtown was there. I didn't know that Paul Huntington had made one. What a prolific builder he is. and with that rake of Canadian Pacific coaches it makes a splendid train. Great idea with the Poster too. It is one of the joys of garden railroading to be able to relive such wonderfull sights from a bygone era. great post.

I agree, having once had that engine in our hands....glad that David was able to add it to his CP collection.
