Matt's trains that siding has always been there. I visited this railroad 3 times and it's been there ever since. It's main focus is to be a run around track for either the steam or diesel locomotives to couple back to the train for the return trip back to New Hope.
Actually he's talking about a different siding. They have two sidings now. One is Lahaska, the turn around point, which you're talking about, the other is a brand new one between Reeder Rd and Aquetong, its sole purpose is to allow a southbound train to pass the northbound.
Great video and drone footage. 27:21 I don’t remember there ever being a passing siding there. When was that added? Can’t wait to see her and that 6 chime in person
That's how UA-camrs get paid. I make barely anything from UA-cam, but every couple of months enough to put fuel in the tank helps pay for these trips little by little so I can go and film and make these videos for the good people of UA-cam. If waiting 5 seconds to skip an ad, or the dreaded 30 second unskippable ad is too much of an inconvenience for you to watch my videos, I really don't care.
Fantastic photography. Thanks for the effort.
Good to see 40 running. Great work!

@@JasonSchaedlerVideos Sounds like they're planning on running excursions every half hour instead of every hour now?

Hey I see myself at Lahaska.
When?
I went to go see the steam locomotives at the Essex steam train they really are beautiful and loud!
Your stupid this is new hope and Ivyland 40 not valley rail road 40 they are 2 different steam locomotives
Awesome video. Great to see #40 back out on the rails.
Whatever happened to the old warning bells that 40 wore?? Spinning bell in 91 and the air clapper used in 96
Oooo that Whistle sounds good. What kind of whistle is it?
Southern Pacific 6 chime
Nice can’t wait to hear and see it in person

They finished putting ballast in a few days before the first excursion, so it is brand new
Jason Schaedler very cool. They are going after Strasburg now. Lol
What was that CSX engine doing in New Hope?
That's PN 8711 awaiting patching before going into service at PN. It's sister 8701 is already working in Lansdale
When was the last time she steamed may?
