Como Rail Road Festival 2018: Preview

What a day....multiple equipment failures.  But in the end I did shoot some film.  However, we have to wait on the developing.  So a Phone Camera Preview this week:


The star of the Event was 'Klondike Kate', a 1912 Baldwin Locomotive 2-6-2 that was used in the Yukon Territory by the Klondike Mines Railroad.  She later served as an amusement park ride in Oklahoma.  Recently lovingly restored by the Como Railroad Society. See Klondike Kate in Action.


Remarkably it only takes two adults to turn the train.
Of course, followers know that I Love Steam Trains!
