Wow! Fascinating! Beautiful! Say what? I hate to sound like the old geezer that I am, and maybe it's the journalist in me, but could we miserables have a little what, where, when, who, why, etc. Thanks! |

looks it was pulled out to test fire. One step closer to full operation which I bet won't be long! |

From the Wikipedia article, this looks like she may actually be of German build, but I won't complain--have to say with that wide firebox and fat boiler, she looks like she should have been on the Central of New Jersey or the Lackawanna, if either of those roads had been built to 3' 6" gauge. |
