Title:  MRYM 1, front view
Description:  0-4-0T #1 of the Monticello and Sangamon Valley museum prepares to move forward on a hot July 22, 1984. I don't remember if the steam was from the whistle or if the steam was escaping from the safety valve.

MRYM 1, engineer's side
Title:  MRYM 1, engineer's side
Description:  MRYM #1 used to haul excursion trains on the Monticello and Sangamon Valley Railroad but it now serves as a display near the entrance to the museum. This view looks nearly due west and the sun provided some interesting effects (!) on this photo.
