Volcanic activity back East (W&W #98)

Had a great day at the Wilmington & Western Railroad on March 30th, 2013 in Wilmington, DE - the first state.

The line owns a beautiful Alco 1909 4-4-0 American built for the Mississippi Central.

They are in the process of rebuilding the tender and work continues on it's 0-6-0 engine
as well limiting the schedule this year so when I heard they were running, I jumped at
the opportunity to shoot on a weather PERFECT day for steam on this oft backlit line.

Enjoy the photos!

Volcanic activity!

Through the cut - new tender in view

Blue skies, steam trains and plumes - it IS possible
