Hi All
I just found out on another website, Railway Preservation News website, that the Valley Railroad has acquired another Steam Loco, to add to it's roster..
The locomotive is ex Frisco 2-8-2 Mike, # 1352..
The Locomotive is currently in Ohio, and belongs to the American Steam Railroad Preservation Association. This is the same group that is now restoring ex Reading RR # 2100 , back to the rails, within a few years... The money from the Valley railroad brings the Reading 2100 closer, to running in the near future...
I would suggest that you go to the Valley Railroad webpage, for more information on its purchase, or go to the website Railway Preservation News website... Pat.
