> Norfolk Southern ran three employee specials from Enola to Harrisburg and back on Saturday using NKP 2-8-4 765, owned and operated by the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society.  Two more trips are planned for Sunday.  
> Keystone Service train 611 arrived at Harrisburg seventeen minutes late, causing me to miss the arrival of the employee special by three minutes.  The special went past the Amtrak station and wyed by reversing onto the Reading bridge (Lurgan Branch).  The Mulberry Street bridge provided a vantage point for seeing the return trip.
