Report No. 36

Merry Christrmas. 

Everything is running well, No.9 and 10 got some grease and oil last week, No.8 is due next.

I had run a train on Christmas Day and today the 26th before rain is scheduled to arrive tonight. Of course I have the week off and it will rain most of the time like last year. 

While running today, the Sierra Northern, (Sierra Railroad), ran up the hill to Fassler and back. 

I stopped to catch the audio of them crossing Tuolumne Rd from my roundhouse.

Here is the video.




Here is train 22 east ready to leave Jamestown for Melones today.



This is the newly finished watertank at Melones.


Train 22 west on Woods Creek bridge returning from Melones.


This was the 4th year I played the North Pole Santa for the Polar Express.
Here is an great picture taken by Kelly Huston of me and my Elves Saturday the 17th as No.28 pushes the Polar Express into the North Pole.
It was lots of fun as always this year.



Happy New Year from the crew on the Angels Branch.
