http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVvtl_y-Xs8 The 31th of May 2009 I made a dream of over 30 come thru. We ran four locomotives about 140 kilometers on a doubletrack "Westcoast Line" in Sweden. One train was a freighttrain with 33 old freigtcars from 1910 - 1970 with two steamers, class E2 from before WW1. The other train was a passengertrain with 13 cars and two steamers class B also from before WW1. The possibility to do this trip was early sunday morning with very few other train om the line. The train overhauled each other for almost the whole distance, it was a long photosession from 07.30 AM to noon. There are many pictures of the event and there will be DVDs. morrgan http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t238/morrgans/BJs-train/malfoto.jpg
