Cool wind blows summer away at Hoosier Valley 10/3/15

Gents -

Not a long report today as most of the museum members were working the first Saturday of Pumpkin trains.  I was ticket collector and host in
B&LE caboose #1989.  Temps were in the low 50's with a brisk wind blowing.  Not many riders chose the open air car today. 

Joe Baker did some additional electrical work.

Bud Tibbie planted some mums that Loretta Kosloske secured earlier in the week (see photo).

Tom Travis represented the museum at a train show in Plymouth, Indiana today.

Jon Oram has recently add a new farm field to the N scale display layout in the Pullman Troop Sleeper.

Good to see Dan and Dee Siple, who rode the second train today.

I've also included a photo of folks on the second of the three trains as they picked up their pumpkins out at the pumpkin patch.  New gravel was
recently put down in an effort to make unloading of the cars a bit easier and some of that effort is visible in this photo.  

Have a great week!
