Niles Canyon Railway

The RPCA folks came on a pretty dark and rainy day, but everyone had a great time.  The all day charter was exciting as it reminded us of the old days when we used to operate 3 trains on a regular basis.   In Sunol, we had three trains meeting - the M200 running out east to Hearst, the normal Sunday train and our train - one busy railroad station!  We had a great time flagging and rearranging the schedule to make sure we could operate safely as an extra under the new operating rules.   
The last two photos are the group waiting for the Capital to arrive at Niles for their trip back to Oakland and our train, with the YV #330 at the rear and the Capital sitting in Niles.
