There's a nifty little Vulcan 0-4-0T on display at the museum, and they've done a fairly nice job of preserving the little critter with very little information on which to operate.They were kind and cooperative when I requested a photo (shown below) for the steamlocomotive.info website, and expressed considerable pride in their little locomotive.More information athttp://www.steamlocomotive.info/vlocomotive.cfm?Display=1783Regards.Doug
