Live Steam

This photo is a tribute to those people who volunteer their time to restore and maintain these old steam locomotives in working condition. In this photo, two men are performing minor maintenance tasks while waiting the two hours or more that it takes to fire this engine up. This engine runs a tourist loop at New Hope Pa. and was out of service in 2014. Hopefully it will be back this year. Parts have to be hand made and there are not many people that know how to repair or operate them anymore.
