NG Loco on the highways
| July 23, 2009 01:05PM |
Gee, no postings or sightings of an outside frame 2-8-0 heading down the highways of Pennsylvania? Thought someone might have seen something odd on I-80 heading west yesterday and today.
Anyway, Quincy and Torch Lake #6 left NJ yesterday via an odd route back to the upper peninsula of Michigan via PA, WV (I believe), Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and then home. The #6 will return home to be placed in front of the Quincy Mining Company engine house, pretty much where it was removed from in 1975.
