This is the Jeddo Coal No. 85, an authentic, restored, coal-fired steam locomotive owned by the Gramling Locomotive Works. Built by Vulcan Iron Works in 1928, originally used to haul stone before being sold to Jeddo Coal in Pennsylvania where it served until the 1960s. He was nicknamed Mack and travels around the country visiting railroad museums and tourist railroads . Ten years ago I did this photo train event on "Sadie" Lehigh Valley Coal No. 126. Other than the markings and number they look like twins. I told everyone to make sure they checked themselves for ticks since we were standing in tall grass in the woods. Thankfully I didn't find any on me. Steam Trains are smokin .......
Oh ,my main camera is back home safe and sound. All recalls fixed and they even cleaned the sensor. 😀no charge ….
I really like the perspective of this photo. I’m wondering what it would look like in black and white
