I wish I could head up. 17 is a small engine, but she puts on a big show.

 

It's pretty interesting to think that this little tank engine, built to slowly trundle freight cars in the yards of New York Shipbuilding during WWII (and meant to be operated by a single crewman no less!), now pulls five-car passenger trains at 15 miles an hour!

 

(That may not seem like a lot, but she's a switch engine, for Pete's sake!)
