On March 9, 2014, I traveled to the Niles Canyon Railway for the fifth annual Post-Winterail Photographer's Special. This year the event featured two trains. Western Pacific's F7 #918-D hauled the passengers while the Clover Valley Lumber #4, a 2-6-6-2T, pulling a freight. Passengers rode behind the F7 and stopped at several locations to allow for photo run-bys of both the diesel and steam powered trains. This video is of the photo freight.
