So let me get this straight. Instead of giving a steam engine who's in perfect working order to a working steam museum like the booth bay railroad and village in maine, they give it to a museum where it will stay in one spot fore years to come? WTF!!!?

Last I heard, new boiler, running gear and misc. other parts while working on the tender and a water tower....

Hmmm. I always had a crazy dream in the back of my head. Why can't there be a steam train powered by electricity? Think about it. Newer trains are being powered by electricity, so cant the electric motor be hidden away in the tender? wires would run ro the engine and power the pistons. Sure, it wont be authentic, but it might be a small "rebirth" in steam trains

Glad Ward invited me to the house with Tom Sherman to see the Nevada start up after so many years in 1985. He made me the brakeman on its box car. The Chloe also ran that day. Glad I took pictures.

At this time we don't have plans to steam her up....yet.

o ok but she is able to be operated
orangetrain66 2 years ago
Yes she is, but and she was steamed up prior to being given to OERM. With FRA standards and rules, it will be difficult to steam her up again.

o ok

Shame the FRA says she can't be run. What do they say about restoring Ward's other locomotive?

Does anybody know if there is a list of surviving Baldwin 2' engines out there? At least ones in the US?
