  • why is it that it has all those hoppers and one tank car? i may be wrong because im guessing, but are those cars meant to replenish her supply when it runs low, or is it a "railfan special"?

  • AFAIK the tank car is for water and the hoppers just tag along, perhaps for breaking power or for looks. I'm not aware that it was a railfan photo special, though.

  • Mikados are awsome where does this engine operate

  • It's located at Hartford, WI in the auto museum there but doesn't get out much. Typically runs on the Wisconsin and Southern Railroad.

  • All-American Mikado.

  • Indeed. An ALCO graduate from 1913. There's a webpage about it at sooline1003 (plus the usual dots that the tube rejects).
