    Subject: Announcement
    Date: Sat, 03 Oct

    
    Iron Horse Enterprises and the N.Y.S.&W Rwy. Jointly announced that on 
    Saturday, October 17th, and Sunday, October 18th steam locomotives C&O 614 
    and N.Y.S.&W. #142 will “Doublehead” the run up the mountain from Port 
    Jervis through Ottisville Tunnel to “OV” Jct.
    
    The two locomotives will team up for the first time to pull the 24 car NJ 
    TRANSIT Iron Horse Ramble train up the 1% grade in a very rare example of 
    mainline steam at its best.
    
    They also announced that two of the four photo run-bys on both days will be 
    run Doubleheaded, with the other two pulled by the 614.
    There are still tickets available in all classes for the October 17th and 
    18th trips, although 1st class and reserved open window coach seats are 
    nearly sold out.
    
    Those interested in riding on this very rare mainline steam Doubleheader are 
    urged to call toll free 888-324-0614 and make reservations.
