Summary edit

Description

This is a coal-burning, Heisler-type, geared steam locomotive that pulls modern tourist trains for the Cass Scenic Railroad and the Durbin and Greenbrier Valley Railroad in West Virginia, USA. The engine was built in 1929 and initially used as Meadow River Railroad # 6. It is seen here waiting for pull a tourist passenger train back to Durbin, West Virginia in May 2016.

Heisler-type locomotives had a V-shaped arrangement of cylinders that rotated a centrally-located, longitudinal drive shaft just beneath the engine.
