EBT Best of 2002

by Lance Myers

October 21

Slight fog and the tree at the left make this an interesting photo of the charter coal train.

#14 heads south at the long fill.

The train passes the station and pulls into the yard.

#14 now passes the car shop.

After luch, #14 is again the star of the show.

Here the train passes Enyeart Road.

One of the two lines of photographers is seen here getting their perfect shot of #14 and its coal train.

Here is my perfect shot at this location.

October 27

On the last day of operations this year, the train passes the fall colors on the mountainside.

The last day of operations was also the second busiest day in 2002.

People gaze at #14 as she is stopped next to the newly-installed flag pole.

The whole EBT Crew
Front row, left to right: Frank Shoop, volunteer; Mike Detwiler, hostler and track crew; Abigail Horton, ticket agent; Nancy Rowe, retired office manager; Barbara Woodward, gift shop; David Boyer, apprentice fireman; Roy Miller, fireman and track crew.
Back row, left to right: Vicki Horton (hidden), Fall Spectacular ticket agent; Daniel Gililand, conductor and foreman; Stanley Hall, general manager; Tom Holder (hidden), engineer and locomotive repair; David Brightbill, brakeman and office manager; Ron Rabina, brakeman; Henry Long Jr, volunteer.

After a large meal, #14 is brough to the inspection pit in darkness.

The fire is cleaned and the valve is open to empty the boiler.

As #14 falls silent, we spy into the roundhouse at #15.

October 28

The next day, M-7 pulls a box car to the grove to pack up all the picnic tables, one swing set and the flag pole.

While the crew eats, M-7 and M-4 are parked outside the station.

The wooden box car is gravity switched a short distance.
