Title: 765 in the Tug Valley
Post by: Southern6482 on August 08, 2012, 10:36:26 AM
Below are some of my favorites from 765 invading the Tug Fork Valley on Saturday, August 4.  My favorite is below as she exits Kentucky on the wye at Ought One. What a site she was but the sound of that hooter whistle was even better!

Wish I'd have made it to 0-1, that's a cool shot.  I have to ask about the next to last shot-the guy in the orange shirt looked like he had gotten a little too close to the tracks...

Butch, he's actually scrambling up the hill out of the ditch.  The angle looks like he was close but he was actually ok.  I thought the foamers were extremely well behaved and a joy to be around on Saturday!

Excellent shots, Chad. It was nice to see you guys during the chase!
