[net.railroad] Steam Excursion Train

balfanz@ihuxv.UUCP (08/09/83)

Did anyone see the steam-powered excursion train go through Wheaton
on Saturday, August 6?

I happened to be going through Wheaton and found out that a steam-powered
excursion train was due to pass through Wheaton on its way back to Chicago.
The train arrived in Wheaton approximately 9:20 PM.  It stopped for a few
minutes and then proceeded toward Chicago.

If anyone has any information on this train excursion, I would appreciate
it if you could send it to me.  Also, I would appreciate knowing some
statistics on the locomotive itself (gallons of water used, gallons of
oil used, etc.).
