Okay, is this Cagney being used for amusement rides, is it a privately owned loco, or are they laying a 15" gauge track for sugar cane hauling?!? LNER4472-NOSPAM-@bcpl.net |

Not sure who owns it, but it's been at the mill for a while & restored to operate as a labor of love by the shop crew. They also have a psgr call to pull and laid some 15" rail to run on. Saw it running in Feb 2003. Very popular with visiting railfan groups & the local kids. Their is another one at the Havana Club Rum museum in old Havana. bas1210@comcast.net |
