BR&W Steam Update

Received the following via email.

BR&W Steam Update!

Yesterday, Thursday September 27, steam returned to Flemington & Three Bridges, NJ after a 12 year absence!

That's right! Yesterday our volunteers fired up #60 and pulled the first steam-powered revenue freight into Three Bridges since the year 2000! This was part test-run, part regularly-scheduled-freight service. #60 performed admirably, and put a smile on the faces of everyone lucky enough to be in ear-shot!

Check out the steam page on our website for more pictures, a short video clip, and additional details.

At this time we do not have any announcements about when #60 will pull her first public excursions, but as soon as more information is available we will post the information on our website and will send it to this email distribution list.



Don't forget, Corn Maze and Pumpkin trains start this (past) weekend!

Trains depart Flemington Station all weekend at 12 PM, 1 PM, 2 PM, 3 PM, 4 PM, 5 PM.

Your train ticket purchase includes your train ride to Pumpkin Junction and return, as well as entrance to the maze!

(All trains are diesel powered)
