This is a great little engine with a really outsized bark. Worth the trip.

Aw, wish I had known about this earlier. I would have dragged my kids out there. They never tire of watching steam locomotives. Alas, other plans have been made.

Glad to see #14 back in service.  It is a good looking loco.

I helped out on the tail end of the restoration 4-5 years ago. Nice little engine.

AND yes, she's got GREAT stack talk/bark. Was in the cab several times while running and the noise is wonderfully deafening !!

Glad to see her back in action. Been wondering for a long time if she'd ever get back on the rails.

Mike
