Steam & Excursion > Steam locomotive on the NYS 90 Thruway todayDate: 09/22/21 16:33 Steam locomotive on the NYS 90 Thruway today Author: SouthBuffalo1 I was going eastbound on New York State Thruway this afternoon and saw a low boy trailer with what looked like a narrow gauge steam locomotive on it going westbound towards the PA line. Had an escort vehicle following it. Didn't see a tender on it. Any ideas on what it was or where it is going?
