Arcade & Attica Railroad 2-8-0 18 departing Curriers, New York for Arcade. This Alco-built Consolidation has been a staple of the New York state operation since the 1960s.
With a decent grade through the rolling hills of western New York state, the 18 puts on a great show working hard, and we have the best view from the open air gondola.
