Very nice Photography Mike. I don't know how I missed these, Must have been because I was on vacation in Michigan. Thanks for sharing with us.

Excellent photos Mike!!
Sitting here looking at your photos, it sure looks like the ol' gal is in her element. You all have done such an excellent job keeping the 2141 in outstanding condition and looking as strong as the day she was new. I bet your passengers really have had a great time on the Christmas train. Sure looks cold up there! Thanks for sharing these photos with us. I have to say your photo #1583 left rear is my favorite. I'm thinking the next 2-8-0 I build is going to use the 2141 as the prototype engine.
We all really enjoy your photos, and looking for more!!
Merry Christmas!

James

Great pictures. It sure looks like a nice place to VISIT.

Ha Ha Ha!
It was -29C, or -20F, when I took these shots. My gloves were to thick, so I took these shots bare-handed. BRR!

No two ways about it, nothing looks as sweet as a steam locomotive on a cold day.
I took these shots on Dec.20th, while she was switching in the consist.
Hope you enjoy!
