Empire 6 |
Description: |
The engine was donated to the railroad by the Heart of the Heartlands Railroad Museum, but moving it from Asbury, Missouri, to here took a whopping four days! They had to build a special trailer to carry it. That first day, going around curves caused them to only get 3 miles in nine hours. Two days later, a wheel came off. After four days, though, they finally got it to Abilene. You can read the whole story here: http://www.abilene-rc.com/news/close-to-two-years-later-engine-makes-it-to-abilene/article_3abf894a-c0cd-11e8-b96b-1bc24e65a2fd.html |
