Steam Locomotive

The Virginia-Carolina #50, a 2-6-0 steam locomotive was recently moved from Florida to Newton, NC at the future location of the Southeastern Narrow Gauge & Shortline Museum. The locomotive is not in the best shape yet but the fine folks with the Alexander Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society and the Newton Depot Authority will soon have the locomotive looking great.

Brandi and I spent a few minutes this past Sunday taking a few shots of the locomotive as it sits in its new location. I look forward to taking more photos of #50 as restoration begins and is completed.







Thanks for looking.
