What's amazing is that, unlike most other live steam railways, this one is actually used for business! I read an article about this line several years ago. Would love to come up for a visit!
this is so cool! we have nothing like this here in in Ontario.
How fast do these trains go? What is the normal top operating speed? I know the railway operates in the winter time but do the steam engines operate in the winter?
@JohnUnit I looked on their website and they are all designed to run safe at 25 miles per hour on their 15 inch gauge rails.
Any other details I can not help you with. Their website only mentions three months (Feb, March & April) of operation but, I am sure they will add more details once, the new fiscal year starts in April.
