Thank you. My idea of heaven is to go to Duluth, MN for railfanning and riding the North Shore Scenic Railroad and then have a walleye and wild rice dinner with Fitger's beer.

I was fortunate to ride once behind 2719 on its last weekend of excursions over the Wisconsin Central. I opted for the Ladysmith - Superior trip. I feel it is one of the best-looking excursion era steam locomotives.
