    What an awesome look back on the decade, Rowan. Let's hope that 2020 through 2029 treats us railfans a whole lot better and hope that this stupid PSR black cloud goes away to bring back all the trains, brother.

Don't worry about train meets , you 'll see plenty in what I hope to see a very long future for you and trains . You'll soon see that weather nor distance will make much if any difference . Well done . I will be watching for more from you .👍👍

    An addition to your commentary! Those PRR units on the old N&W,isn't what most people expect and there a story there! The Pennsylvania owned the N&W for a period,and even rostered some ex-PRR, K-class 4-6-2's,so there are now several ties that bind! The real irony is that the N&W, runs the old PRR Pittsburgh division,and lines West,! How the mighty have fallen! By the way,you sound like me,when I was 15,and just getting my feet wet,as a rail fan,and now 60 years later,I've never stopped being that self same teenager. Man,I hope you never grow up,because you'll always be a student and always learning! One new thing a day,and think of a week,or a month. Knowing is a powerful force for good. 🚂🚄🚊🚍🚇🚆🚋
