This is cool. For those of you here in KC, this steam locomotive will be at Union Station on Saturday. I saw one from the Union Pacific come through a couple years ago, and they are way cool. Great for kids too. Check it out if so inclined: https://fox4kc.com/news/cpkc-final-s...c5NHV4d21-k8Qm [Reply]
Nice old 4-6-4 Hudson.
Very few Hudsons escaped the scrapers torch, let alone still running. State of Iowa has an old Burlington & Quincy Hudson sitting in a park.
High speed passenger locomotives. Made famous by the NY Central and it's 4-6-4 Loco and passenger trains the 20th Century Limited and the Empire State Exspress with its all aluminum stream lined boiler jacket designed by NY artist Dryfuss.
Go see it if you can. [Reply]
