Not to mention the thick cloud of foam that will be cast upon the entire valley as the train heads south and over the loop and etc. :-) Somehow the thought of #11 going this detour on Winterail weekend brings up visions in my head like those photos taken in third world countries with people riding all over the engines, car roof tops and hanging out the windows of trains----I can see the Starlate reservations being totally booked and tickets scalped!! :-)
