Old Steam

GTWRR 4070 on the Cuyahoga Valley RR:



4070 was one of the locomotives saved from the scrapper by Richard Jensen. She ran in excursion service on the Grand Trunk and Western out of Chicago in the late 1960s. She then ran in excursion service in Ohio and on the Cuyahoga Valley Railroad until she needed a major overhaul in 1990. Now called the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, you won't find a mention of 4070 on their web site. The Midwest Railway Preservation Society owns 4070, they are slowly restoring her to operation.
