Steam & Excursion > Torch Lake #3Date: 10/16/18 18:32 Torch Lake #3 Author: columbusrailnut Tomorrow at the Henry Ford museum Torch Lake number three will turn 145 years old making her the oldest operating locomotive in the country. Tonight the crew spent extra time polishing and cleaning for her special day. A special thank you goes out to Matt and his crew for showing me around the shop and for the wonderful work they do everyday to preserve steam.
