Stockham's Trains run for the Master Garden Tour

[pimanjc]

On Sunday, June 6th, from 11AM to 5PM, the Kansas Central & Colorado RR owned and operated by Steve and Patsy Stockham and family was one of the featured stops on the Salina, KS Master Garden Tour.  Approximately 700 guests visited.   David & Lana McLain and Jim Carter from the Wichita Area Garden Railway Society [WAGRS] drove up from Wichita, KS and assisted Steve.   Steve ran a variety of 1:20.3 steam engines in two consists.  Jim also ran his circa 1931-1967 M-190 "Old Pelican" kitbashed doodlebug.  All trains operated on RC/battery [RCS & QSI].  A good time was had by all in spite of high 90s temperature, high humidity, and little breeze.  Hopefully as a result of Steve and Patsy's efforts on the Tour, other layouts may be started.  Lots of interest was exhibited.

Jim: Posting the link as a URL (as you did) is the easiest and most efficient way to do it from YouTube.  From Photobucket you can post a frame of the video as the link, but PB only works with smaller videos.  Nice job, thanks for sharing.
