2-8-2 No. 15 powered an empty coal train consisting of nine restored EBT coal cars and EBT wooden caboose No. 27. The fare for this special run was $125.00, which included the night photo session. Photographers were taken to photo runby locations in another train which ran ahead of this train, which was comprised of an open air car and EBT wooden combine No. 15, and powered by diesel No. M-7, a 55 ton General Electric industrial switcher. This was the first runby, at the overhead bridge a mile north of Orbisonia.
