Ardenwood Railfair 2018 -- September 2, 2018


Today we went to the 19th annual Washington Township Railroad Fair at Ardenwood Farm in Fremont. The weather was pleasant, with a breeze that kept it from getting too hot.  Turnout was good this year.  A brakeman said the train had 2000 riders yesterday.  We saw 1890 Porter 0-4-0 Ann Marie push a newly built coach into Ardenwood Yard.  Ann Marie could not pull a passenger train for the public this year because of issues about some state rules.  They hope to resolve the situation for next year.  Ann Marie made some demonstration runs between Ardenwood Station and Deer Park.
