Engineer Keith Linker keeps a watchful eye on the road ahead, from the cab of Norfolk and Western 475, as he pulls his train forward in the siding at Groff’s, during a Historic Transport Preservation, Inc, Steam Special on the Strasburg Railroad at Strasburg, Pennsylvania on November 7th, 2021.

According to Wikipedia: Strasburg Railroad (Norfolk and Western) No. 475 is a 4-8-0 “Mastodon” type steam locomotive owned and operated by the Strasburg Railroad outside of Strasburg, Pennsylvania. Built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in June 1906, it was part of the Norfolk and Western’s first order of M class numbered 375-499. Today, No. 475 is the only operating 4-8-0 type in North America and the Strasburg Rail Road’s oldest operating steam locomotive.
