One Step Closer

Now off of the flatcar and onto Kentucky rails, RJ Corman's QJ #7040 is one step closer to steaming along the Old Road.

That loco looks awfully big to pull a excursion/tourist train. What's it going to be used for? Just curious.

Good question...there has been a lot of speculation about that here in the Bluegrass. It will probably be used for VIP/charter trips such as KY Derby Specials and the like.
 
so, this beast is ready to roll, no work needed? What year is it?

The QJ's in Iowa put on quite a show, but their electonic whistle gets old quickly. Thankfully they also had steam whistles in addition to the electronic BRAAAP!

China Steam Spectacular by PENTREX is decent, 2 1/2 hours long at $19.95 on sale now.
