St. Croix Railroad Fall Meet 2023 - 4.75" and 7.5" gauge live steam

The St. Croix Railroad held their Fall meet on September 21st-23rd. These videos were from Friday, 22nd, and covers 4.75" and 7.5" gauge live steam with coal, propane, and kerosene-fired locos, along with electric and gas-powered engines, too.

I had the pleasure of getting a tour of, and riding on, some larger gauge equipment down in Phoenix, AZ a couple years ago. It was so much fun! I hope I can figure out how to incorporate this financially into my hobby when I get closer to retirement. =)

There are some great clubs, and usually all very open to visitors like you mention! Joining a club, if there's one near you, often opens up access to any club locos they might have. Usually there's an expectation for you to put in a little "sweat equity" to help keep things clean and running, but that's how I got started before I slowly started to build up my own little roster of rolling stock. Happy to show you around St. Croix if you make it up this way! Iain

If this is the St Croix RR near Hudson, WI I have been there a couple of times years ago. Interesting to see it again. I have forgotten what it looks like. Thanks for sharing. Do you live in area?
