Unfortunately by 2006 at lot had changed for the Georgetown Loop Railroad…The State Historical Society and the company that had been running the line got crossways and a new company was brought in to run the railroad. The problem was that most of the equipment used on the railroad was owned by the previous company so when they pulled out there was nothing much left to run. The new company did bring this engine (#12) in from Hawaii but it has been plagued with mechanicals problems.

The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.” And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the __________ went from before their face, and stood behind them: And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a _______ and ______________ to them, but it gave _________ by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the night.

When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd.
