Saturday morning we went up to the roaring camp railroad. We had planned to take the steam engine up to the top of Bear Mountain to the redwoods. Engine #7 was the engine that was pulling our train. When we hit the 8% grade going up the mountain the engine's front axle derailed and a little diesel rescue engine had to come up and take us back to the depot. Travis got to see how they manually uncouple the cars from the engine because we were sitting right behind the engine. Also check out the video with the boys explaining their experience. Remember Ted is always the dramatic one.
