PTR T-1 boiler coming to Harrisburg this weekend

Impressive.  I hope to see it some day.  

Well,  couldn't resist being there in person.  It's just the outer layer of the boiler,  and most of the sections are stitch welded right now.   The boiler is headed back to St. Louis for completion.  The front fairing was loaded into a u- haul for a different destination, and apparently the cab will stay somewhere in PA as well.   I am impressed,  I never thought they would get this far.

My sassy little railfan.

She's also my secret to looking decent in pictures- as long as she's in the picture with me I look better!😁

Good luck T-1 Trust, I hope to ride behind this engine one day!

Your daughter and the locomotive are beautiful!…..you?….well the jury is still out John,…🤣🤣🤣
