Western Maryland Scenic Railway Expanding Operations in MD

Today the Western Maryland Scenic Railway (which operates the 2-6-6-2 Baldwin Locomotive #1309) announced that they are expanding operations and will run passenger excursions and freight service on the old Cumberland and Pennsylvania /Western MD/ CSX George's Creek short line.  I live directly along the George's Creek short line/subdivision and it will be exciting to see trains run through town again with the line active and not torn out.  CSX abandoned the line back in 2005 and other than some maintenance work done by the now defunct George's Creek Railroad, the line hasn't seen much action in nearly 20 years.  They may also put a bike trail along the track.
