Has anyone heard any news if MBRRE, will be resuming "Steam In the Snow" in January 2020? I thought we would have heard something by now and nothing is showing on the Conway Scenic schedule.
In other news (I may have mentioned this already but to lazy to go back and look), I've heard rumblings that they are looking into using their dining cars as stationary restaurants during the off season. My personal opinion is: why not give it a shot, if they're serving up good food and can make some money, go for it. More importantly though, if it helps retain your current employees in what is otherwise a very difficult field to find coverage for (restaurant industry that is), then give it a shot. Now that the Conway Scenic is providing their own food service for the Hattie Evans and Rhonda Lee the headache of trying to find a chef, cooks, waitresses and a bartenders every spring can be minimalized if you are able to provide a job for them year round whether the train moves or not.

It takes real skill to choke on air, fall up the stairs and trip over nothing. I have those skills.
