Steam-up/Blow-down
Steam-up and Blow-down are special days. As a Northeast US club we are subject to the change of seasons. We work on the track and grounds year-round but most train operation is limited to warmer weather months.
At the beginning of the season, the club hosts a Steam-up Day. It provides the membership with a day to get reacquainted and bring their equipment out for an early-season run. Likewise, in the fall, we celebrate the close of another season with a Blow-down Day.
These days are reserved for members and their guests. While no rides are provided for the public, these days provide a relaxing time for those interested in the hobby and possible membership to visit, watch the trains and chat with our members.
Steam-up in 2010 will take place on May 2.
Blow-down will take place on November 7
This year, we are adding 5 Club & Friends Steaming Days. Like our Steam-up and Blow-down, no rides are provided for the public, these days provide a relaxing time for those interested in the hobby and possible membership to visit, watch the trains and chat with our members. These days are:
