Description
Pictures aren't always what they seem to be. Looking for all the world like the old "York-Philadelphia Express" of years gone by, it is in truth the Strasburg's former P. R. R. classic #7002 at Columbi's Front Street crossing on November 11, 1988 being towed westward to Gettysburg to participate in a reinactment of Lincoln's trip to Gettysburg. A diesel at the other end of the train is providing the power.
