Kentucky Railway Museum

My son and I got in our last day trip of the summer and we had a great “boys day out” by visiting the Kentucky Railway Museum, in New Haven, Kentucky. We had a great day, and here are some of the highlights of our visit.

Ok, since this is the O-gauge forum, the first pic is there to qualify this as an O-gauge thread. [:-^] There is an O-gauge postwar train on the bottom row.

The Chesapeake and Ohio 2-8-4, they refered to it as a Kanawha, but she’s all Berkshire!!

This is one of the engines that led our excursion run.

A Santa Fe ???

Where’s the L&N ???

yeah, the L&N 152 gets to play on the weekends. I know that Chesapeake & Ohio bought L&N and that explains the 2-8-4, but I forgot to ask how they acquired the Santa Fe. They had a Monon diesel engine there too. The diesels on the other end of the excursion consist were actually Air Force engines, but all the passenger cars were L&N.
