RR Days in Monticello: A Good Time Was Had by All

Live steam at Railroad Days in Monticello, Illinois.
The workers are short and the steam trains are not very big, but they keep running round and round at Monticello Railway Museum’s 2022 Railroad Days on Sept. 17-18.
The Midwest Live Steamer’s brought their scale trains out to run alongside the Museum’s 1:1 steamers.

ITD Member Ernie Noa is the local organizer for the live steamers and provided this video
Ernie also captured a pic of yours truly holding down the ITD table featuring audience operation on one of Bob Miller’s modules.

Another goal beyond helping ensure crowd safety around the live steam was promoting ITD’s 2023 Lincoln Square Train Show next March 25 & 26
