  • When plans to make 2020 the best year yet for the Greater Milliard Railway Museum are derailed by the pandemic, Twila finds herself grasping at straws to make the most out of keeping the museum afloat. Between the ever evolving issues of the real world and within the organization, it seems like the weight of 2020 itself is on her shoulders.

    So much of this video I related to so heavily. Not through volunteering at any museums, but instead through being part of the New England, Berkshire, and Western at the RPI Model Railroad club. We were working on moving the railroad from the basement of a dorm to a new location last year, and right as we started to gain traction through all the bureaucracy of the administration, everything shut down. While we’ve been on campus this year, we still haven’t even seen our railroad in 2 years. Seeing these kinds of stories told through shows like Full Steam Ahead though gives me reassurance that we aren’t alone, and also hope that things are getting better. Thanks for all the work you guys put into your shows! Love the videos! Stay safe and healthy!!

    Here’s an idea for the next episode:
    With cases rising, attendance to the GMRM declines significantly, and they become desperate for money. Eventually, a newcomer introduces the idea of running freight trains, using the Strasburg Rail Road and Mount Hood Railroad as examples of lines that primarily cater to tourists and run freight on the side.

    Coming back to this episode, the scene where they're deep-cleaning the inside of the train really makes it look like it takes place in 2020. By January 2021, it was proven that the majority of COVID cases were caused by airborne transmission, meaning that cleaning surfaces was actually expensive and time-consuming.

But fortunately I'll be able to do some I have for 2021 such as joining my Uncle when he heads to Durango & Silverton, Cumbres & Toltec, & the Grand Canyon Railway too maybe. Even during these hard times we can til manage things if we try.

    Wow! Now this was a nice surprise! This video really just goes to show how Railroads across the country had to deal with this crisis, and above all else, the people who fight tooth and nail to keep our history alive, even in these trying times. Seeing Twila's struggle to keep the line from being shut down, and not to mention, the character development she saw in this story really helped to make this one a heavy-hitter! Ultimately, I want to tip my hat of to all the voice actors for an excellent performance, and to all the volunteers who continued to keep the trains running, even in these trying times.

    The animation keeps getting better and better :)
    And speaking about film recommendations. Here's an interesting movie that's for adults and children alike. It was made in Denmark and it's called: "Olsen Banden på sporet" which translates to: "Olsen gang on the track". It's an comedy/crime movie made in 1975 directed by Erik Balling and starring Ove Sprogøe. The film was the seventh in the Olsen-banden-series.
    An other recommendation is "Człowiek na torze" which translates to "Man on the track". This movie originates from my country. Man on the Tracks is a 1956 drama film by Andrzej Munk. I won't spoil the rest, you have to see it for yourself :)
    Other than that. Keep up the awesome work! Hope you guys are safe from COViD. Greetings from Poland!
