2005 Convention: Denver, CO

Larry Hochhalter works on Excursion ticket sales

Attendees admire some of the contest entries

Sandy tells the truth as we wait for the train at the George Town Loop

Barbara, Lou Schmitz and Jim Ehernberger wait in the shade

There is always something to talk about as you wait for the train


Sandy entertains the Mantleys

Even the Eagle walking stick has a story

The train arrives to the click of shutters

Our group files onto the train

The tail end car

The covered cars were full too

Through the trees and around the rocks

We approach the loop trestle behind #12

We pass over the lower track

The cameras get ready for the run around

Some wait patiently

#12 starts the run around

She backs down to a joint

Saturday Swap meet

Lots of food at the banquet

Yes, there is still desert at the end of the table

Some of our honored guests

First photo line on the excursion

The train backs down for the run by

The 844 is the center of attention

Steve Lee climbs down

Steve Lee meets Lou Schmitz

and talks to Dick Kindig

Lou sets up for one more photo

And watches 844 go by
