I bet that was cool to watch that machine in action.

It was, seems it was much bigger than the one in the pic and it was fresh painted in red and green so it was like early christmas. Like all steam powered engines it had a release valve which was tied into a whistle you could hear from far far away. it saddens me a bit that folks today have never travelled across the south on a real steam train. Private cars were the private jets of their era and were way more lavish.
