    On a gloomy and misty summer Tuesday, we venture all the way out to Syracuse to catch up with the AAPRCO DeWitt Chapple Memorial Special convention train traveling along the Finger Lakes Railway. We would follow the train all the way from Solvay to its destination in Canandaigua, stopping at scenic sites along the way.
    I hope you enjoy this production, as it was one of the more ambitious, far traveled, and expensive outings I have had, but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. This has inspired me to start planning a return trip to the Finger Lakes Railway to catch some freight action in the future.

    Thanks for coming to see the train and sharing your video. This train was for the 46th AAPRCO Convention that was held in Canandaigua NY.
    The train was named the DeWitt Chapple Memorial Special in honor of the passing of one founding members of AAPRCO, DeWitt Chapple.

      Thank you for checking out the video! The train is absolutely gorgeous and truly shows the thousands of hours of hard work that is put into the cars by their owners. Thank you for everything your organization does for the industry!
