Re: [CBQ] Branson Scenic Railway

["Ken&Janet Hodgin" <hodgin1@suddenlink.net>]

Hi Rich,
We just got back from taking the trip. Definitly worth the trip. We rode in 
"Silver Garden" it still had it's art deco touches. One of the cars,cafe lounge 
I believe I don't recall the name of the car, still had the mural of "Pere 
Marquette" on the end wall. There are cars both from the "Twin Cities & Denver 
Zephers".

It was a nice 1and a half hour ride in the Ozarks including two tunnels and a 
high tressel. Motive power are ex- B&O locomotives GP-30 & F-9.

  List,

  I looked at the web site for the Branson Scenic Railway. It appears to have 
four former Q stainless steel cars. The few pictures the have seem to indicate 
that the interiors have been redone to the point where they no longer look like 
a classic passenger interior. Is this a correct asumption? The web site is 
pretty sparse.

  Is it worth planning a trip from the Chicagoland area to ride? Is the dinner 
package the way to go?

  Looking for any insight.

  Rich G.
