Just want to let the board know that the Maine Narrow Gauge Day out with Thomas was truly successful. Over six operating days we carried approximately 15,000 passengers on our little railroad. With a very dedicated group of volunteers we ran 53 trips with no mechanical problems. With the help of Portland Yacht Services and H.I.T. entertainment this event will hopefully become an annual event in Portland,Maine. Would also like to mention this was a very well behaved group passengers. Many Thomas fans had their photo taken with Thomas as per H.I.T. guidelines using three point protection. Thanks, Rick. |

I believe it was built from scratch by the Strasburg RR and is usually stored at Edaville RR.-Ed Lecuyer |

Is it only 2'gauge? The wide wheel fenders make it look like it is adaptable to 3', possibly even 3'-6" "Cape Gauge". |
