No Future for Steam???

I will definitely testify to the crowds drawn by big steam. <br /> <br />A recent excursion i took however provides some answer to that. I rode last july behind 4449 in an excursion in conjunction with the Portland Rose Festival. <br /> <br />This excursion started at Portland Union Sta., and then went up the columbia Gorge to Wishram. <br /> <br />Since Wishram is the middle of nowhere, the only public there were the passengers from the train. And there are allready excellent crowd controls at Union Station. <br /> <br />So perhaps the best method is to run these excursions into areas not easily accesable or populated, and out of locations where track access can be restricted. <br /> <br />However, perhaps someone connected to the most recent P&W showing can comment on their problems and how they handle them. So far, I don't think that anyone has been run over by steam on P&W. <br /> <br />Alexander
