Big Week for the Live Steam Hobby with the Train Mountain Triennial work week in full swing

Every three years hundreds of people in the live steam hobby make a journey out to Chiloquin, Oregon for the Train Mountain Triennial. This is a two week event which encompasses working the railroad and playing at the same time. The fellowship and friends created across the hobby is an amazing experience for sure. One of the other things that makes this railroad so unique is the nearly 40 miles of track with one route taking nearly 4 hours round trip. This week marks the first week of the Triennial with a focus on working the railroad during the day and playing in the evening while the second week is pretty much all play. Here are some pictures taken back in 2015 during week one of the event when many of our members went out to the Triennial.
