I hope I live long enough to see her run. Keystone1

Me too!

When the steamtown group has run it for a while they can loan it out for a switch with the Flying Yankee. Let the B&M Pacific run on that tourist railroad in New Hampshire and Maine for a while while the Flying Yankee is at Steamtown and also let them run together a bit beofore they return home. Awesome! Maybe someday.

I don't even want to think of how many days off I would take from work to see those two move around! Especially being in the middle of it, I know all the good spots that most people won't know!

I remember when it was "Steamtown USA" in Bellows Falls. I have a few photos and a movie I took when I was about 10 years old. <G> Unfortunatley, our train was not powered by a steam loco that day as there was a big stink going on with the Vermont State Board of Health reference the smoke from the steam loco. Wow, what a bunch of bull. Well, Steamtown moved... I may still have the button that says, "Steam is Clean".
