Santa Clarita
Fillmore and Western Railroad
First Run in the Western USA 11 Jan 2020
New chapter and new adventures
The first chance Dan had to operate his car in the West came in January 2020. Wayne Parsons conducted an early season run on the Filmore and Western Railroad. It was chance for Dan to operate 007 after several years of being idle and do a Test and Tune" trial. The excursion ran from Filmore out to Santa Clarita and then returned. Due to fuel contamination issues, Dan setoff 007 at Filmore and left the excursion early. As Dan was operating alone, he only took pictures at the stop in the Santa Clarita station. Ironically, this was the last run on this railroad before it was sold.
