Great Walton Rail |
Description: |
I was fortunate to ride along with the crew on two seperate occasions. This locomotive also had a cameo role in the movie "My Cousin Vinny", which was filmed nearby. It is now preserved in its original Western Maryland paint scheme on the Georges Creek Railway in Maryland. |
