Arcade & Attica No. 18, a 2-8-O built in 1920 by Alco, in her 2024 livery. This scheme is a homage to the first livery she wore in 1962 when she started pulling Excursion trains, 62 years ago. I was able to ask Pat the engineer if he could close the windows and door so I could grab a shot of 'full paint'. The doors are hardly closed, as you can imagine. Earlier that day (pics 3 and 4) there was a ceremony down at the depot publicly revealing the new paint, along with a ribbon cutting and appreciation speeches. I was surprised that I myself earned a mention by name, for the upkeep of several of the town displays this past year. #steam #crossing #depot #trainspotting #station #alco #arcadeandattica #usa
