Preserve Our Historic Trains And Train Stations
Toot, Toot, Steam Engine Trains A Coming!

My husband is a trainguy :) He has a 7-1/2 inch scale coal locomotive that his dad built from scratch. A grown man (and woman) can ride on it ~ they are amazing machines. He runs it at the Adirondacks Live Steamers Club in upstate NY. We would love to visit the Steamtown Train Museum :) cheers, Claire!
Amen Sister! And they need to preserve the rolling stock, too!
I'm with you Claire, preserve the historicity of these trains and the museums that tell so much of a great story. Loved the pictures.
Addendum, if you're planning to be in the area, look up Steamtown Train Museum, for train ride and fee information.
