Doing business under three different names: Hobo Railroad, Winnipesaukee Scenic Railroad and Rail Bike Adventures, the Clark Family sold the railroad to Patriot Rail.

The Unobtainium Express will be roll'n freight cars loaded heavy with unobtainium, moving it from Lincoln NH to Portsmouth NH and thence onto a freighter ship, and thence to all seven continents, world-wide. Unobtainium, mined deep under Lincoln and North Woodstock NH is a highly valuable export that will totally fix our import-export deficit, all by it unobtainium self! ...... such a valuable export ...... unobtainium! .......

...... improve the exterior appearance!
Patriot Rail, new owner/operator of Hobo and Winnipesaukee Railroads should redo and spiff up the exterior look of all their passenger cars and engines.
Suggest they get some design inspiration from the www.thecog.com/cogcam to help make it a very happening tourist railroad. Leo's Party Caboose is great just the way it is, but all the other cars and engines could definitely use a colorful, 1885 Victorian era design motif with a different look for each rail car. The Cog has different passenger cars which are bright yellow, purple, and pink with 1885 style design accents. No doubt the interiors can use a major redo as well? ......

Great News! It seEms Patriot Rail has some excursion experience with their ownership of Blue Ridge Scenic. Now if we can occasionally get a steam locomotive to make guest appearance in the Weirs!
