Narrow gauge steam locomotive

Hi All,,

Some photo's of a 3' 6" gauge steam engine running in Busch Gardens, Williamsburg, VA. taken by my DIL on her phone. The site has a couple of miles of narrow gauge track with 3 steam engines and open carriages. Taken just after Christmas last year on a freezing cold day (around -10°C). There we were in "Scotland" at the Tweedside Station waiting for the train when around the bend came a Caledonia blue steam engine, inside piston (sounded like one piston), propane fired, narrow gauge locomotive - Balmoral Castle. Built in the 1970's in PA according to the driver. I liked the air conditioner unit perched on the roof of the cab. We all got off at "Italy".
