Jonmes & Laughlin Steel 58, our 1937 24" gauge Porter 0-4-0T is getting closer to completion. We pieced it together for our fall open house this past Saturday. Although we are still awaiting completion of boiler work, the 58 is now looking much more like a locomotive with the addition of the saddle tank and cab.
We expect to be running in the spring of 2018 at the Youngstown Steel Heritage Museum in Youngstown, OH.
