Yesterday, Lerro Productions along with Strasburg put on quite a show in the snow yesterday. The engine was re-painted into N&W paint and was renumbered to 382, which was the engine O Winston Link shot as the Virginia Creeper. Below are 3 shots from the trip. Enjoy!
1. N&W 382 rolls through the countryside past farms and cemeteries after 2 blizzards dumped 20+ inches of snow:

2. The shops at Strasburg. In this shot are CN 7312 (in the front), LIRR 4-6-0 behind her and a narrow gauge 4-6-0 in the back. UP 844's drivers are there for some TLC, and you can see just how big they are by comparing the one set sitting right in front of CN 7312. They are almost as tall as the old 0-6-0:

3. One final shot for now, N&W 382 arrives at a rural Virginia station the Abingdon Branch on a bitter cold winter night:
