Description:  WVRR 1 and 9339 sit side-by-side at the start of the Whitewater Valley yard in Connersville. I like WVRR 9339 because it still says New York Central!

WVRR 25 and WVRR 1
Title:  WVRR 25 and WVRR 1
Description:  At this point I was running extremely late so I made a mad dash for Connersville. When I arrived the Metamora Train had already left the station and the Polar Express was getting ready to load up for its next trip. With that being said I began to race south on State Road 121 to find the Metamora Train. As I passed the WWVR Yard I noticed that the Lima Diesel was up and running. I have been told that they utilize a chase engine for the Polar Express. When the train takes off, another engine will follow about 1-2 miles behind it. When it catches up with the main train they will take the train back as far as the yard before decoupling and pushing the train the rest of the way to the depot. I m not sure they they dont run the train as a push/pull operation, Maybe just more fun for the volunteers!

WVRR 1
Title:  WVRR 1
Description:  After NS 26C it was time to get down to Connersville. The Polar Express still had not yet shoved to the platform downtown, which gave me an opportunity to grab some shots of the other power that they have scattered about. First off, as usual, was the 40Tonner right up front.
