Have you ever seen a real steam engine in action? Have you ever ridden in a train pulled by a steam engine? How about your kids or grand kids? How about riding in a caboose?
If not, this is a great weekend to do so on the Black River & Western Railroad (July 19 & 20). Trains operate between Flemington and Ringoes, NJ, and will be pulled by No. 60 pictured below. This is a 90 minute round-trip excursion, and you may board at either station. More information at the following web site:

Please note that the steam engine does not run every weekend.
Here is the "official" flyer for this weekend.
