Yard Limit
The engineer on Norfolk & Western M-Class Locomotive #475 closes his throttle as his short mixed train passes the yard limit on approach to a rural station where they'll pick up passengers and the mail. This little re-enactment was staged during a November, 2021 Historic Transport Preservation (HTP) photo shoot on Pennsylvania's Strasburg Rail Road, which is the current home of the 475. The farm pictured here is one of several Amish farms that line the 4.5 mile shortline. This particular one is indeed located just inside the yard limits of the line's East Strasburg Yard.
