    I captured these images back in 2016 at Steamtown NHS.
    This park train ran in Scranton, PA's Nay Aug Park. The child and man pictured give this train an idea of the ride's scale.
    The Allen Hershell Company manufactured these park trains which were common in amusement and public parks in bygone years.

      Jscotto...thank you, they did a good job on it, and saved it from most likely being scrapped......

      Hi. Jenni...thank you for your kind comments. They really did well on restoring this. There is another of the train's cars in storage, and perhaps as room becomes available, it will be added to the display.

      And maybe it's wishful thinking, but as time and money allows, this conveyance hopefully will be operating through Steamtown's grounds!
