I chased this restored steam locomotive as they sold rides to raise funds for their restoration efforts.

Beauty! One of my favorite restored locos right there. I love Northerns the most, and she's no exception.

Thanks guys for all the positive input. They don't let these engines out of the Barn to often, so I was really pleased to catch these.

It would have been really great had you got more of an angle...

Yes, I thought so also. Would've like to have caught more of the cab and the passenger cars. But very narrow area to shoot from at this spot. I did get some others that are more broadside.

Well, I'm glad you asked. I'm new to posting here at POTN, and as I understand the rules I can only post more if requested.

Heres a couple more that I thought were keepers.

Didn't care much for the chain link fence, hard to shoot around. It ran the entire length, (3.5 miles), That they ran the rides on.
