Steam In The Snow, 2017 |
| Description: |
"There's nothing like steam in the snow," Jim Boyd noted in his book about Steamtown. The 261 has steamed in the snow at Steamtown National Historic Site and now, for the fourth year running, at St. Paul Union Depot. Here the crew is bringing the 1 P.M. train to the North Pole into its destination on the east side of SPUD. Dig that steam show! You rock, 261! |
