  • After a five or six year absence, Strasburg Rail Road's Plymouth #1 locomotive is back on the main line! To celebrate the 60th anniversary of tourist operations on the railroad, the railroad fixed up their 1926 original gasoline-powered locomotive and ran it for a photo charter on Friday, October 16, 2020 - just like it would have been doing on tourist trains 60 years ago. Enjoy the "Return of the Plymouth"!!

    Watching The Plymouth pull those coaches gives me a calm relaxing feeling.

      Absolutely - even though it's straining pretty hard and going slow, it definitely would be a nice, relaxing ride.

      Their first one when they started running tourist trains. The railroad was around long before this and had various steam locomotives in the late 1800s/early 1900s.

      Not that it's not allowed on the mainline - but they don't have a need for it unless it's an emergency.

    I grew up riding on a 1928 11 ton narrow gauge Plymouth (in addition to our steamer). It looks nothing like it's original configuration but it's a very useful and cool locomotive to have around. They pack a punch for a little locomotive!
