    I though it would be a good idea to give this event a thread.
    Who can go wrong attending an event w/777, 6023 & 3803

    Each locomotive with 3-4 departures(just a guess) a day.

    And the ELR Gala. Presume the timing of the event is due to a limited opportunity to have both 6023 and 777 ready on the same weekend before the latter departs for MHR and its main line season.

    A bit of a crowded weekend then. I'll be manning the stall at NVR so lets hope 70000 and 4141 draw the crowds.

    I wonder if the King will be renamed in time for this event? Would be interesting to see her run as King Richard III.
