I was informed tonight (2/15/2016) that indeed, there will be *something* happening for Roy.

Stay tuned for details. :)

Wow, if so I missed it by just one day because I was all day at the park on Sunday the 14th.

Um...I believe MSJ means that on 2/15/16, he received the information that there would be something happening. Not that the "something" actually took place on 2/15/16.

Yes, hence why I added "if so" meaning if it actually did happen.

Correct. I received some info from a valuable resource. It won't be happening until the fall, though (mid-September, perhaps).

As soon as I have all of the details and dates, I'll be sure and post here. :)

It appears that there was some sort of commemoration for the 100th anniversary today, perhaps cast-only before opening. Maybe one of our regular board members who was there will share his photos. :)

Today we definitely had a pretty good on the railroad. That's me up there on the tender with a few of the old timers.
