As usual, another excellent video from Treefrogflag Productions. I used to live up near Santa Cruz and it was killing me that I couldn't watch this major event in person. Your video helped ease that pain a lot. Thanks.
Can passengers still get rides in open gondolas ? A lot of heritage RRs make you ride in a enclosed Pullman...I wont even bother if that's the case might as well be riding behind an Amtrak or diesel-electric.
2600 was there to pull the train back up to camp, or if #2 couldn't pull the grade on her own. Due to how recently the engine had been restored, the steam crew was concerned about the engine's bearings overheating on the steep grades found on the SCBG.

I'm glad I could help, many more are on the way!
Nice video, sure picked up the sounds well (especially the Shays and the rod engine).
Great video! I can't wait until #2 comes to the northwest railway museum in august.
I was there that Saturday for the afternoon run to Santa Cruz!

Yes they do. Roaring Camp has open cars on every train that does out. Diesel or steam.

Why is the rr2600 following the steam engine train?
