First Run of the Day
No. 16 is rolling through the Rockhill Furnace PA yard on its first run of the day.
East Broad Top Railroad No. 16 was out of service for 67 years, the 2-8-2 Mikado steam locomotive began operating again in 2023.
No. 16 was one of the last engines to operate for the EBT when it was closed in 1956. It’s one of the three largest and heaviest engines on the roster (Nos. 16-18), all of which use superheated steam and piston valves. Three earlier, lighter engines, Nos. 12, 14 and 15 used older slide-valve technology.
