Absolutely bonkers to wake up to the news that a group I've literally never heard of until this morning stepped in, bought Chesapeake and Ohio 614, and is funding her full restoration to operational status.
At least she'll be in the best possible hands during the restoration process since they contracted Strasburg to do it, and I wouldn't trust anyone more than them.
The only name out there right now attached to this is Jason Johnson, the general manager of the T1 Trust, the group working to build a new, fully operational PRR T1 locomotive. (They want to see if they can set a modern steam speed record, amongst other things.) It sounds like a lot of current railroad industry professionals are involved with 614 and they can't be named right now, which would explain how this got completely funded with no donations and so quietly.
Definitely going to keep a close eye on this. It's interesting...

The Badger Arrives
The former car ferry for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, now a tourist operation for the most part, arrives Ludington, Michigan. It now carries people and their automobiles across the lake between this place and Manitowoc, Wisconsin. The structure in the foreground is the Ludington North Breakwater Light.
[I should note: the railroad had a sister ship to this one named the Spartan. Thus one for a Wisconsin State University and one for one situated Michigan. I doubt that this would happen in contemporary times with the attack on higher education going on.]
This was very much one of these events where things unfold every so slowly, lulling one into a complacency...only to then accelerate very quickly. This so much as to catch a photographer with their pants down, but I think I was able to squeeze off the frames that I wanted. This daily summer event deserves more attention—and perhaps booking passage; one can go here if interested.
One thing that mildly disconcerts me regarding these shots: the lighthouse seen here has a definite tilt toward open water. [Whenever possible, I level my images based on the horizon, easily done here with Lake Michigan in the background, and the tilt is real.] I don't know if it was designed that way, to withstand pounding of large waves from that direction, or something that's happened over time.
Eight images by Richard Koenig; taken July 18th 2024.

While traveling during my holiday vacation, I met someone special!
Say hello to 1601 of the late Chesapeake & Ohio Railway! She’s an Allegheny, one of an engine class bested in size only by the Big Boys.

Time to start posting Minecraft builds. For my first Minecraft build, here is Chesapeake & Ohio 2716 as how the locomotive appeared for the Southern Railway's steam program from 1981-1982. This was used following CraftyFoxe's Chesapeake and Ohio Kanawha and Pere Marquette N-1 tutorials so credit to him.

🎃🍪 Milk Chocolate Stuffed Jack-O-Lantern Cookies 🍪🎃
Get into the Halloween spirit with these adorable Milk Chocolate Stuffed Jack-O-Lantern Cookies! These festive treats are soft, chewy, and filled with gooey milk chocolate, making them perfect for celebrating the season. 🎃👻
You will need:
• Ingredients:
o For the Cookies:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips or chunks
Orange and black icing (for decoration)
• For the Filling:
o 1 cup milk chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cookie Dough:
o In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
o Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then add the vanilla extract.
o In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
o Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
2. Prepare the Chocolate Filling:
o Place the milk chocolate chips or chunks in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth.
3. Assemble the Cookies:
o Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
o Scoop out a tablespoon of cookie dough and flatten it into a disk.
o Place a small spoonful of melted milk chocolate in the center of the disk.
o Top with another disk of cookie dough and seal the edges to completely encase the chocolate.
o Shape the cookies into a round form and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
4. Bake:
o Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden. The centers may still look slightly soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
5. Decorate:
o Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
o Decorate with orange icing to create jack-o-lantern faces and use black icing to add details like eyes, noses, and mouths.
6. Serve:
o Enjoy these fun and festive cookies with a glass of milk or as a sweet treat for Halloween parties!

Since Tom McComas passed away this week, I feel now was the best time to show my tribute to Tom with the Tom Snyder C&O Streamlined Hudson he received back from Snyder after he died.
RIP Tom McComas. Thanks for everything you've done.
