'Comfort in the Constant's'
Here we are in 2020, a year that has been nothing short of an atrocity.
But for Valley Railroad Mikado #40 its a great year celebrating her 100th Birthday, an impressive milestone for any steam locomotive. The American Locomotives Works 2-8-2 rolled out of the backshops in 1920, and she continues to provide good service well into the 21rst Century. Here we see her departing Essex with the final revenue run of the 2020 regular season.
I spent a good amount of my childhood watching #40 pull trains on the Valley Line and in a world where it seems like the only constant is change, its refreshing to be able to step to a simpler time once in a while.
