, adding a little interest. (She is a Saltville native.). I also have images of the convention train itself filled with happy passengers (in a gondola car as I remember).

I know 475 and a Southern Silverside gon (brand new) were displayed in Bristol and I’ve seen a poor slide of 2 Redbirds hauling a passenger train, likely a special with conventioneers, at the Abingdon station.  I’d like to know more about this convention, especially excursion trips.
