Album Info:My first visit to the Walkersville Southern. I went down to see visiting Gramling Steam - Lehigh Valley Coal Co. Number 126, an 0-6-0 Saddle Tank Steam Locomotive transported to the Walkersville Southern via Lo-Boy trailer. LV Coal 126 was brought back to life by John and Barney Gramling as a stable mate to Flagg Coal 75. I rode the excursion specifically billed as the Railfan Special - extra trackage to the north of Walkersville, and double run-bys at two separate locations. A thoroughly enjoyable day trip for me, and a new life-list operating steam locomotive to boot.
