Jupiter starts its runby for park visitors |
Description: |
That's wood smoke coming from the funnel stack. The Central Pacific ordered wood burning locomotives for their portion of the transcontinental railroad because California didn't have any coal mines. Jupiter was built in Schenectady, NY and shipped around the Horn of South American and back uo the Pacific coast to San Francisco. Ditto for the rail that the Central Pacific used in constructing the Sacremento - to - Promontory Summit. It came to California by steamship through Magellan's Strait. |

Steam into History's re-enacted Great Locomotive Chase - after the run-by |
Description: |
Photo location is on the curve south of Seitzville. Seitzville is where the photo line for the re-enacted Great Locomotive chase was set up. Having a bicycle allowed me to chase around the curve to get to this location along the York County Heritage Rail Trail. I'd rate it as my favorite photo of the day. |

Leviathan's eye-catching tender |
Description: |
I'll go out on a limb and say that Leviathan trails the best-looking tender of all currently-operating steam locomotives in the US today. |

Leviathan and a coach near the New Freedom station |
Description: |
Leviathan ended up running light to the re-enactment site, but earlier in the day it was coupled to a coach. The original plan was for each steam locomotive to haul a passenger car north to Seitzville. I heard from fellow railfans that there was trouble with the train line air brakes on the Leviathan, so the coach was added to York 17's consist, and the Leviathan ran light instead of hauling a train. |
