We celebrated Baltimore Herb Festival on Saturday, May 28th, 2022 Leakin Park<\/big><\/p>

Herb of the Year: Viola\/Violets
The herb of the year for 2022 is Viola, a plant whose cheerful colors seems to welcome spring. Both leaves and flowers of violets, pansies, and johnny-jump-up are edible. The leaves of violets (viola sororia) also have medicinal properties. Historically they have been used to treat colds, coughs, sore throats, and constipation. They are high in vitamin A and C and can be included in salads. The flowers are sometimes made into jelly and candy. Viola sororia is deer resistant.<\/p>

We are excited to be planning the festival and will update the website and Facebook as details become available!<\/p>

Admission is $7 for adults; children 12 and under free. Parking is free. Hours are 9:30 a.m. \u2013 3 p.m.<\/p>

NEW THIS YEAR:<\/big>Presale on\u00a0Eventbrite<\/a>\u00a0preferred. We will take electronic payment at the entrance and exact change donations.<\/p>

Thank you to everyone who came to the 32nd annual Baltimore Herb Festival that was held Saturday, May 25, 2019 at Leakin Park.<\/big><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Baltimore Herb Festival, established in 1987, came into being as a fund-raising project to support the care, maintenance, and repair of the 1859 Winans Chapel in Leakin Park while also promoting the value of using and growing herbs through an annual festival. In close consultation the city’s Department of Recreation and Parks and the Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation (CHAP), the Baltimore Herb Festival Inc. is now providing leadership for a major preservation project for the historic Winans Chapel.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Cass Scenic Railroad
C.A.L.S. at Cass RR Excursions May\u00a0 2013<\/a>\u00a0Cancelled<\/h1>

Information and registration<\/h2>

Below are comments and photos of the 1995 run.<\/p>

Our weekend began by signing in at the\u00a0Cass Shops<\/a>\u00a0on Friday. The area looked eerie with the smoke and fog surrounding the engines. I had seen Shays before but this was the first time I had seen a\u00a0Heisler.<\/a>\u00a0The next day as we waited at the station for the trains we talked with our fellow passengers, they came from all over. Several were from other Live Steam Clubs. As the lunches were counted and sorted the trains backed out of the\u00a0smoky haze.<\/a>\u00a0After boarding our assigned train we stopped at the\u00a0water tower<\/a>\u00a0to fill the tanks before heading up the mountain.<\/p>

Shortly after leaving the yard we stopped for the first of many photo opportunity. After finding a location the trains backed up, then ran forward past us. The first train was pulled by\u00a0Shay #2<\/a>, the second train was\u00a0double headed<\/a>\u00a0by Shay #4 and Heisler #6. As we climbed the mountain the second train remained only a few feet behind so the\u00a0photo car<\/a>\u00a0could film it with both video and still cameras. (These Engineers are good.)<\/p>

The track is steep, up to 11% grades, I was lucky that due to timing I was able to get a shot of the double header\u00a0on the hill.<\/a>\u00a0As the trains climb higher I looked down to find a\u00a0fire car<\/a>\u00a0following, looking for fires the engines may have started. In case of fire all passenger are to help in putting it out. Fortunately no problems this trip!<\/p>

As we gain altitude the track becomes steeper and more\u00a0twisted<\/a>, the engines do slip from time to time, spinning wheels until traction returns. At various points the trains are stopped for photo\u00a0runbys.<\/a>\u00a0Half way we stopped for\u00a0lunch<\/a>\u00a0before continuing up hill. There are several old pieces of logging equipment here as well as recreations of loggers cabins to explore. At this point the trains split up, the double header going up to the top and the other going to the site of an abandoned and buried town.<\/p>

At the top the locomotives start the\u00a0final climb.<\/a>\u00a0Shrouded in steam and smoke all that can be seen is a headlight, then part of the\u00a0first engine<\/a>. Wheels slipping\u00a0Shay #4<\/a>\u00a0rumbles by with\u00a0Heisler #6<\/a>\u00a0straining right behind. Once on top we were rewarded with a clear\u00a0view<\/a>\u00a0of the countryside. After coming back down the mountain with brakes squealing in protest we had dinner with the group and looked forward to changing trains for the next days run.<\/p>

The next day we were treated to a\u00a0Locomotive Race<\/a>, well not really but it was impressive. On this trip we did not stop for lunch at the half way point, instead we had lunch at the end of the lines. This was done to save time since everyone needed to start for home for Monday work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The CALS Cass trips are limited to 100 adults, 50 per train to make it a fun non-crowded experience, its main objective is photography and sound recording without other people or sounds getting in the way. From the number of repeat participants we have we must be doing something right.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
