- On Saturday, June 10th, 2023, we find former Jones & Laughlin 0-4-0T #58 (lovingly referred to as "The Rolling Ingot" because of its solid steel frame and, consequently, high weight) running public trips on the J&L Narrow Gauge Railroad in Youngstown, Ohio. Come along with me, as we take in the sights and sounds of this beautifully restored 1937 Porter locomotive! We'll also take a look at the progress on the restoration of her sister #57, as well as a work extra pulled by our Brookville gas powered switcher #64.
Thanks to Josh Cohen of Coal & Steel Photography for allowing me to use his shot of me running J&L 58 in the intro, and for holding the camera while I climbed into 57's firebox! He does great photography work, and has an awesome photo gallery, which you can check out here: www.coalandsteelphoto.com/
If you would like to visit the J&L NG Railroad, we are operating every Saturday from 10am-2pm in June, July, September, and October. Located at 2261 Hubbard Road in Youngstown, we also offer the J&L 58 Experience, which lets YOU operate 58 for the day! For more information, visit youngstownsteel.org .

LOL. I live near Youngstown and had no clue this was here! Cool video. I'll have to check J&L out!
Hearing that locomotive sound off and chug past will NEVER get old! :) It's going to be absolutely crazy when 2 of them, 3 of them, or possibly even 4 of them might run up the hill together ;)
For as small of a locomotive as 58 is, she sure makes a lot of noise! Can't wait to see how the other Porters turn out!
Do you know the weight of No. 58? It must be massive with that solid steel chassis.
Very nice. Greetings from port saint lucie florida.
Thank you! Hope you can make a trip up this way someday!
