Dangit, I'm jealous. You just don't know how many hours I've invested in trying to shoot the Purple Demon and STILL don't have it! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banghead.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=' ' />

Dave,
There is actually a bar on top of thier station and there is normally someone there who can find someone to pull it out. Their station sits on a HILL (as compared to a hill) so you will need to find someplace to take it for the pictures because you aren't getting it in front of the station (unless you love slanted pictures like a certain photographer whose picture's get posted on here a lot).

Oh, I know all about the station, the HILL and the bar. I've been there several times, but it has never resulted in a photo. Not yet anyway. I'll try again in September......

I appreciate the offer, Pat, but I prefer to shoot my own. "Roadtrip 2011" is coming, maybe my luck will improve.

As soon as possible and as soon as the Army doesn't interrupt everything! That "one weekend a month" seems to always fall on the best weekend of the month...
I was out for the 6 County (crappy weather and other issues) and the East End engine (one I wanted to see) wasn't there. I did get the Coal Township rescue and Sunbury Mack CF Command, so it wasn't a total loss. I'm hoping to be out in the August-October time frame for at least a couple days.

Don't you wish every photo trip, every weekend was like that. Go to one spot, have about 10 companies show up, do photos, move to another site, shoot a bunch. Oh how I wish it was so eaasy.
