Pere Marquette #1225 North Pole Express 2018 (photos)

A week before Christmas I was at the Steam Railroading Institute in Owosso, Michigan for the the last weekend of their North Pole Express excursions.

Instead of the cold and blustery winter conditions with wind driven snow and ice that I have become accustomed to, there was instead thick fog most of the weekend and usually warmer temperatures; which gave a cinematic look and feel to many of the scenes.

I thank everyone in the SRI family who comes together every holiday season to host an amazing string of sold out events; not a better way to be transformed into the true spirit of Christmas. Follow the link below to my gallery of images from the weekend.
