Nice time even with low turn-out Saturday due to weather.

The only live steam this time was about 10 traction engines. 
The main boiler for the Steam Engine Hall is all apart for repairs and maintenance.

Below is a video to chronicle the event.

Enjoy!

On the way home...

Stopped at a rest area with a very pleasant view to enjoy a chicken dinner.

It is on Interstate 84 eastbound at the top of the first mountain in New York state after leaving Pennsylvania.
