East Broad Top 16: An Orbisonian Steam Revival (4K)

Steam is back. For the first time since 2011, the East Broad Top Railroad would offer steam powered excursions along the historic narrow gauge route. To highlight the railroad's annual Winter Spectacular, 2-8-2 "Mikado" #16 would be returned to service operating excursions over 5 miles of trackage from Orbisonia Station to Colgate Grove. Along with new steel passenger cars and a wooden caboose, the train would traverse the scenic line through the forested hills with steam leading for the first time in nearly a decade. On this beautiful winter weekend the locomotive would power four passenger excursions that would draw railroad photographers and tourists alike from across the country. In plumes of steam and melodic sound, 16 would put on a spectacular show of steam and power after the rewarding rehibilitation of the historic line and equipment beginning in 2020. Please sit back, relax, and come along as the sights and sounds of a steam locomotive finally returns to the East Broad Top Railroad in "An Orbisonian Steam Revival" by Keystone Rail Productions! History of 16: East Broad Top 16 is a 2-8-2 "Mikado" that was constructed by the Baldwin Locomotives in 1916. Delivered as the first of a batch of three larger 2-8-2s ordered by the EBT, the locomotive was equipped with superheaters, piston valves, and Southern valve gear. During her career in service, the locomotive could be found hauling heavy coal trains and long strings of freight cars over the EBT's trackage. In 1955 she was given an overhaul and would only operate a for a short period of time. In the next year, 1956, her fire would be dropped for the final time until 2020. After an inspection to asses the condition of the locomotive, it was determined to be a viable candidate for restoration. Later that year, work began to restore 16 and was given the name "Nick" to honor Nick Kovalchick, the man who saved the East Broad Top from an uncertain future. The locomotive would be fired up in 2022 and on February 1, 2023, 16 would operate under her own power for the first time and was officially returned to revenue service later that month.
