Out of service for several years at the Huckleberry RR in Michigan, former D&RGW 2-8-2 464 is again operable. Several photos in the thread below:http://www.ngdiscussion.net/cgi-bin/NGDFcook.pl?read=63692

Rode behind her a long time ago at Knott's. Is that a CB&Q logo on the tender?

It looks similar, but is says Huckleberry Railroad. I think it looks more like a Lackawanna Railroad logo.ImageFrom: http://www.trainweb.org/mmrhs/Erich

It SHOULD look like a Lackawanna Herald - that was my inspiration. I was looking at the herald on the back of one of my Lackawanna books one day - Hmmm - Lack - Huck - yeah, that'll work!Someone commented once - "That looks like a Lackawanna herald!" My reply was, "Yes, I'm from Northern New Jersey", but it went right over their head. And, by the way, they're just magnets.

I got to check it out yesterday. I am very impressed and that engine runs very smoothly!The last time I was at the Huck I was a little kid, that was probably over 15 years ago, so I don't really remember the operations. I was pleased to see the 464 pulling a nice string of wooden coaches and a caboose at quite a good rate down the line!

You're right, it does. Thanks for sharing the photo.
