Very nicely detailed red and blue "steam" engine, a 4-2-4, actually runs on a small diesel I was told. Not sure of the length of the loop-to-loop track, but it took 8 minutes to ride the entire length. Here's some pics I took of it last week, finally rode it after 10-15 years knowing it was there? I think the engine was restored a few years ago, too.
Been awhile since I've ridden a large-scale train, there's a V-4 powered diesel at the Shenendoah Caverns cave in Front Royal , VA, near intersection of I-66 and I-81 interstates. But I've driven by this park for literally YEARs, and didn't know they had a train, then after knowing it, never road it.I decided to use some of my vacation last week to go enjoy the ride. I'll also post a video, soon as I can get it onto Youtube.  Enjoy the pics now, though.
