A set in Ohio is running excursions for the local residents.

Lima built Berkshire engine 1225 is running flawlessly thru the bucolic countryside.

Those bright two tone green colors look great in the brilliant sunshine.

Coaches built in 1927 and still running strong in the next century.

Pleasant route with varied scenery and numerous high speed straight sections to enjoy.

Photographed near Columbus Ohio with nice weather today. And with colors for Saint Patrick's Day.
