Running a steam engine | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I wanted to point out a wonderful article in the latest issue (Vol. 50, No. 1) of The Keystone (a publication of the Pennsylvania Railroad Technical & Historical Society). "Called for Train 519" describes the experience of an engineer running a PRR N2sa (2-10-2) in passenger service. Intriguing, isn't it? I truly enjoyed the article, learned from it, and recommend it. I think the real steam locomotive engineers on the forum will relate to it and perhaps give us some more fascinating insights.

Even using the Vulcan mind meld I cannot locate this article.

I'm sorry, but I don't think this is on-line yet. I was thinking some of you might be PRRT&HS members and get the print copy.

The high quality of research, writing, and photography is worth the yearly membership just by itself.
