Album Info:The Hartwell RY Passenger Division was established in 1982 to operate excursion trains over the regular Hartwell RY. While the two companies were separate, they used each others locomotives frequently. The Passenger Div. also brought the 2-6-2 #11 onto the property. At one point they bought an ex-Southern NW-2, which proved too heavy, and later a GE 65 tonner.
