CONWAY â In great news for railroad steam enthusiasts, Conway Scenic Railroad says it hopes to have its antique steam engine in working order as of Dec. 26, in time for Christmas week excursions.
CSRR Marketing and Events Coordinator Brian Solomon said the North Conway railroad test-fired steam locomotive No. 7470 this week.
It is the first time the boiler had been brought up to pressure since being put away for the winter last January, and brings the locomotive one step closer to its return to service, say tourist railroad owners David and Rhonda Swirk. Over the week between Christmas and New Yearâs Eve, we hope to assign 7470 to some of our scheduled Valley trains in preparation for its Winter Steam excursion (Jan. 2), said Solomon. In addition, the locomotive will be displayed under steam in the North Conway yard.
