A trip on the Folsom Valley Railway in Folsom, California. This little mini train is located in the city park, next to the Folsom Zoo. It's pulled by "The Cricket", a 12-inch gauge live steam locomotive.
Very big news, the Cricket did it's first major test run on 11/9/08, and did a doubleheader with 3001 Atlantic, it needs to have little kinks worked out, and then it can pull public train on a regular basis.
If you are interested about the doubleheader I currently have video of it on my channel.
Scratch that, Cricket's timing needs to be reset, and then it can operate again, for now it is stored in the engine house, it will be checked out probably on Wednesday or Thursday, then it will start operations.
Cricket has just returned to Folsom Valley after a 1 year absence, the Atlantic 3001 will be down for service for awhile, as it needs maintenance, to 2 valves, Cricket will start operations tomorrow.
