From Bramah - 9/25/11 2:03 PM

My son is a train lover so we decided to attend your Railroad Days event yesterday. We arrived early to watch things being set up and stayed until 4:00 when the last event was completed. Every aspect of our visit with you was excellent. We have attended other train events and have ridden on many other trains but the accessibility of the equipment and the attitude of every staff member we encountered made this day special. A particular thank you needs to be given to Leon our Engineer in the Climax who allowed us to travel with him in the cab and watch him work. This is a man who truly loves his job. Our three hour ride home was filled with stories reliving the day and the many things we saw and did. It was obvious that a lot of effort went into making this event run so smoothly so we just wanted to thank you for your efforts. We will surely be back. Bill Sylvia
