Neat shot of an interesting train. Any shots of the engine that show the details of the running gear?

Well, Ryan, I see you did go to the Zoo - I hope you survived the picnic?
Did you beg a cab ride like I suggested?

By the time I finished eating at the picnic, it was too late for the train. Ends at 6:00. I didn't realize it was that late, I need to find my watch. I'm gonna try to go back sometime when they are running the steamer though...

The drive isn't much to look at. If I recall correctly it's a two axle (4 wheel) engine. They use a hydraulic drive to power the wheels via a chain according to the zoo website. It's a nice little engine and works well, but there's not much to see on the drive train end of things, no side rides or any of that...
