They have cabins for rent. And their steam locomotives still work.
They also have a repair shop. Usually the guys let us come in and
poke around. On a good day, if ones timing is right, they might even
let ya ride up in the cab as they move them around.

They specialize in a type of locomotive called 'Shay'. Instead of the
steam pistons being horizontal, on the Shay they are vertical and they
have one heck of a gear train powering all the wheels.
