BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! IF YOU CALL NOW...

Norfolk Southern is ALSO offering rides behind steam locomotive 765 in the northern area, namely, ALTOONA to Lewistown via HORSESHOE CURVE! I can't even BEGIN to comprehend how expensive those will be! Think about it! It's everything I've ever wanted, therefore it will be IMPOSSIBLE for me to have it! YAY! You rich adults have fun though. :-D

Unfortunately most of us "rich adults" are just broke on a larger scale than the younger set. !!jabber!!
