Steam & Excursion > Who's Am I?

This should be an easy one - name the driver's of this engine.

---

isn't one of Strasburgs RR's is it? most likely the 0-6-0?

Strassburg's 0-6-0 is former Canadian National #7312 renumbered to #31. This is not that engine, however.

Mitch, I name them No. 1 and No. 2. Can't see No. 3.

Hey Jim.. .
I was waiting for someone to "name" the drivers.
But you are correct so far, there are 3 sets of drivers, and a single lead set up front.
(What do you call the lead set?)

A 2-6-0 eh? I'm going with Canadian National (Strasburg) #89. And, the lead set of trucks on a steam locomotive are commonly called pilot trucks.

Strassburg / CN #89 2-6-0 - you got it.

And in RR slang, the front truck is a "pony" truck. That Strasburg 2-6-0 has alligator crossheads. I love it. Alco?

This is good stuff. Not only does this post give us a sort of trivia guessing game,( not guessing for some people though ) but also a refresher tidbit in high school english! Miss Edwards would have felt right at home here.

Looks like you're responding to a deleted message....
My feathers weren't ruffled - I think I'll be sticking with
Who's am I rather than "To whom do I belong" - it's more in sync with Where Am I.

CNW 475 is a?

Canadian National Mogul 2-6-0 #89, once part of Blount's Green Mountain Railroad was sold to Strassburg in 1972 and was built by the Canadian Locomotive Company.
