Indeed. I wonder if he would consider selling prints or posters?

So nice to see it working
I know this was just for the move, but I always like to see the steamers making money

Amen to that. It's awesome to get to see them doing what they were built for. (Obviously not referring to 611.)

Patrick Connors, a fellow closely associated with the Arcade & Attica caught an actual freight revenue run back in June 2012...

Quote
After being utilized earlier in the day for a school excursion, 18 is called into service for a short freight train. 112 was out on the line, having already taken one train north to Reisdorf's Mill. 18 runs to Arcade Junction to pick up the remaining few while awaiting 112's return with empty cars.

ED'S LAW: Just this morning, I caught a northbound CSX freight on the Philly Sub in Newark, Delaware, hauling nothing but a looooooong string of empty well and spine cars.  That's right, not a container or trailer in sight.  That's a prototype for my intermodal trains that still await the purchase of containers and trailers.  :facepalm:

FYI, I did spot at least two CSXT (former Sea-Land) Twinstacks in the consist.  Cool, they're still out there!

I've seen these on a few occasions on the NS Lurgan line going thru Mt Holly Springs, PA going in both directions.  A couple had a handful of lost containers/trailers on the front, but most times they've been completely empty
