ADMIN: Everyday I receive emails asking me where I park, is it going to be busy, what time does it get there, what day is it coming, is it free, do I have to buy tickets and questions that have been asked and answered many times. We put together an information page do please go there to get your answers.

If you really want to get an idea what the events going to be like,
read this thread from when Big Boy was in Rochelle. They prepared for 30,000 and got over 50,000. Might give you an idea what to expect.

ADMiN: DELETED POSTS

If you've noticed your post may have disappeared it is because it is not Fostoria related. If you're a Railfan you know Fostoria and the area but if you're not then posting something about CSX or anywhere else can be confusing to those that are just coming to see the Big Boy.

We're just trying concentrate on our event starting with June 6th and then once that over we can concentrate on the visit July 14

Thank you.
