Kiddieland Steam Power

They had the steam power out today on the railroad at Kiddieland. I didn't even know they had a steam engine, a coal burning streamlined 4-8-4.
The train has just pulled out of the station is is crossing the parking lot to loop around the park.
The end of an era this past weekend as Kiddieland closed it doors. It remains to be seen what will happen to the two trains and all the rides from the amusement park in the western suburbs of Chicago.
