Description: |
Prior to today's excursion departure, rain fell in the Cumberland area. GP30 501 was tacked onto the rear to provide some help, since #734 cannot make the 2.5+% grade into Frostburg during slippery conditions. |

"Turn" completed |
Description: |
With the excessive length on the turntable, it became a matter of rotating the duo a few feet to the run-around track rather than a full 180º turn like they do with the steeam engines used on the line. |

Title: |
Run-around begins |
Description: |
Once they are moved to the run-around track, the locos slowly roll forward across the street to the waiting passenger cars. A crew member stands watch at the street crossing although a snail could probably outrun the units! |

Title: |
Short street running |
Description: |
The nose of Western Maryland Scenic #502 is about to clear the turntable as the pair proceed to the head of the returning passenger train. Now it will be WMSR 502's turn to be covered by the "rainstorm of leaves" knocked off the trees by the new lead unit, #501. |
