Our operating steam locomotive, 8419, is due for a major inspection starting this fall. Our goal is to get the inspection completed and have 8419 ready to operate for her thirtieth birthday in 2018.  For us to make this a reality, we need your help to raise funds for the inspection work. If we don’t have the funding raised by October 31, 2017, we will have to delay the start of the project, and thus significantly reduce the possibility that we will be able to operate steam during the 2018 summer season.
