Viewing Album:  Steamtown with a 1st-time visitor - April 19th, 2015
 
By:Bob Krug
Dates:4/19/2015 - 4/19/2015
Album Info:I made the road trip up to Scranton with my grandson, age 4 on Sunday - his first visit. He loved it - particularly ringing the bell from the cab of IC 790. I took a couple roster shots, and we did the shop tour to see how things are progressing on BLW 26 and B&M 3713.

IC 790
Title:  IC 790
Description:  IC 790 has steps that allow visitors to go up into the cab from the fireman's side. There's a cord from the fireman's side of the cab out to the locomotive's bell, and my 4-year old grandson found daylong entertainment re-visiting the cab to ring the bell.

Description:  Lots of work still to do, but it's good to see physical progress from my last visit. With 80-inch drivers, this is going to be a real crowd pleaser when they finally get it back to steam.
