On the way back, apparently the rain and wind was so strong that 62 actually hit a tree. Two of them. |

Explorer |
| Description: |
A&M car 107, formerly LIRR 2927, is at the rear of the southbound train from Springdale. It will detrain and load wheelchair and other passengers for whom climbing steps to the car is inadvisable. |

Wheel chair lift |
| Description: |
One of the accommodations to the ADA, and good public facing policy, is a lift to get mobility challenged persons on and off the train. Given that a good number of riders are on in years, and need help getting on and off, this is a great idea. The crew gets set to take on riders. |

Rock cut |
| Description: |
The terrain the A&M traverses is quite rugged in places, such as here on the approach to Trestle 1 south of Winslow. |

Trestle 1 |
| Description: |
A&M has three large bridges between Fayetteville and Van Buren, all of them back in the woods and virtually inaccessible from anywhere but the railroad. Even if you could get to them, the trees are so grown up you could not see them anyway. The view from up top is pretty basic, steel structure with track on top. |

Down the hill, onto the bridge |
| Description: |
We have rolled onto Trestle 3, through a rock cut that is typical of the line through the Boston Mountains. The mileage is from St Louis, reflecting the line's origins as the St Louis-San Francisco RR |
