Engine shop |
Description: |
Many units have passed through the doors of this shop. I can almost hear the banging and sounds of machinery, men laughing and yelling cheerfully at each other. |

NF-110 #906 |
Description: |
Built in 1953, she's the only nf-110 built that year. The custodians at the Railway museum were very pleased when I told them that she was the last engine in the consist that pulled the last passenger train across the island in 1969. She will be moved from here in Bowring Park to the Railway museum a few blocks from here. Locals say it would be much better, as the vandals wouldn't have such a heyday with it. |

I believe this is an express car at the park. The "Avalon" was between this car and engine 906 before it succumbed to the elements and was scrapped. |
