Great Walton Rail |
Description: |
I was fortunate to ride along with the crew on two seperate occasions. This locomotive also had a cameo role in the movie "My Cousin Vinny", which was filmed nearby. It is now preserved in its original Western Maryland paint scheme on the Georges Creek Railway in Maryland. |

Western Maryland 25 |
Description: |
WM 25 is a long way from its previous home on the Great Walton RR where it was GRWR 6400. I worked on this locomotive on the GRWR and I was plgased to see that Gerald Altizer had done such a nice job returning it to its Western Maryland heritage. It was a happy reunion for me. WM 25 was the first of a batch of GP-9 locomotives that received the "Hagerstown Chop Job" where the short hood was shortened and the locomotive rebuilt. |
