One might ask Brian Fleming about the cost for a steam engine to pull empty coaches on the Mount Hood Railroad.....yes a pretty good pull to Parkdale but downhill all the way home......I think Brian would tell you that each additional car costs a chunk in fuel.

Sounds like Wanda was having a bad day. Speaking only from our Cascade Rails 2011 NRHS convention event that we held on this railroad, Wanda went way out of her way to show our 200+ attendees a great time. It was an excellent event..........and yes Harold put on a GREAT show for us. My favorite memory is Harold going around the consist to pull us back to the depot and his stopping next to one of the coaches and a hand reaching out with a soda and handing it to
Harold........sort of a steam locomotive at a drive-in............
