IC 790
Title:  IC 790
Description:  IC 790 has steps that allow visitors to go up into the cab from the fireman's side. There's a cord from the fireman's side of the cab out to the locomotive's bell, and my 4-year old grandson found daylong entertainment re-visiting the cab to ring the bell.

IC 790 rides the turntable at Steamtown
Title:  IC 790 rides the turntable at Steamtown
Description:  The oldest steam locomotive in the Steamtown NHP collection, IC 790 is a popular display at the park. It's normally situated just outside of the visitor center main desk, and a platform with stairs allows visitors to safely climb up to the footplate, and ring 790's bell. In July, 2020 790 was moved for the first time in 8 years out to the Park's turntable. It has since returned to it's customary location, where it delights kids who love to ring the bell.
