CN 2-8-2 #3254 - Canadian National |
| Description: |
Built by the Canadian Locomotive Company in 1917 originally as CN 2854, this loco has had an interesting life. The loco was retired and sold in November of 1961 to Willis F. Barron who eventually sold it to the Gettysburg Railroad. In the summer of 1987, the steam locomotive arrived at Steamtown National Historic Site after they traded Canadian Pacific 4-6-2 #1278 and some extra cash for the 3254. Until 1995, the 3254 was masqueraded as Lackawanna No. 1271. As a result of issues with either the boiler/firebox or the frame, combined with other needed maintenance which made further operation impractical, No. 3254 was taken out of service indefinitely after the 2012 season. It is now a static display and as recently as 2020 in front of the Steamtown National Historic Site. Specs - serial #1463, class S-1c, 63" drivers, 180 psi boiler pressure, 27x30" cylinders, engine weight of 276,000 lb, tractive effort of 53,113 lb. Paul Kuehner photo |

Big crowd |
| Description: |
Steamtown ran excursions on the ex DLW for several summers in the 1990s, and they were popular. This was due to two engines available, and the route. The DLW Cut Off toward Binghamton had the attractions of Factoryville tunnel, Martins Creek Viaduct, and the prize of Nicholson Bridge, the largest reinforced concrete structure in the world, that year marking its 75th anniversary. The crowd here on the second week of operation on the Cut Off watches as the crew goes through the paces of changing ends. |

CN on Tunkhannock |
| Description: |
Steamtown occasionally had a problem with its regular steam power, so they restored CN 3254 to serve as their main engine while CP 2317 was getting an overhaul. In 1990, they made an arrangement with Walter Rich to run the ex DLW to Kingsley Pa, about 30 miles north of Scranton. The route would take the trips not only over the massive Tunkhannock Viaduct, but also over its smaller sibling, Martins Creek Viaduct, and through Factoryville Tunnel as a bonus. This is one of the first trains to run to Kingsley, the eight car train dwarfed by the massive structure. |

| Title: |
View from town |
| Description: |
Its hard to get a shot of a train on the Nicholson bridge from a close angle due to its height at sheer size. This look, taken from the Pump & Pantry on US 11 shows the bridge pretty well, but its hard to see the train, just starting after a short stop on the bridge to let riders take in the view of Tunkhannock Creek and surrounding areas. |

Hooking up |
| Description: |
No, not that way!! CN 3254 couples to the south end of the Steamtown train as several riders watch the action. The coach, interestingly, is original DLW, one of the Boonton cars that lasted into the 70's in New Jersey commuter service. |

Laying down a pall |
| Description: |
Steamtown trains ran fairly fast on the cut off once up the hill from Scranton. Here the excursion train lays a smoke screen over the Hop Bottom station as it heads for Kingsley. |
