It is; they’ve got an awesome collection of steam locomotives and matching rolling stock. They also do a lot of restoration work.

Here’s actually a shot from the railroad crossing at the end of our street. And yes, the locomotive is ‘backwards’ in this configuration, as it can equally pull in both directions. Makes it a lot easier that they don’t need to turn the locomotive itself around at either end.
