Description:  After a respite of more than a month, when cousin 3025 did the chores, Valley Railroads Mikado 40 was back on the road today. Here, after a days work, she sits on the pit in late afternoon light, her fireman laying a bank in the firebox for overnight. It was good to see and hear her back today!
