Ride along the Lebanon, Mason & Monroe Railroad from Mason to Lebanon, Ohio

On October 31, 2020 the Lebanon, Mason, & Monroe Railroad + Cincinnati Scenic Railway ran a fundraising trip across the Lebanon & Mason Subdivisions. The intent of the trip was to raise funds to purchase Chessie GP30 #6955 from the scrappers torch.
Fans were out in force to catch two former Chesapeake & Ohio cabooses make a round trip between Lebanon & Mason Ohio. CRC 5704 in C&O paint was supposed to power the train but it had a mechanical issue earlier this week. CRC 901, ex-Nickel Plate Road 901 still looked good rolling along the former Pennsylvania Railroad.
This footage was taken from the back platform of former C&O caboose #3154 on the southbound run from Lebanon to Mason, Ohio. To give you perspective of running the train, the footage is played in reverse & sped up by 5X.
