Locomotive 268

The 268 is a famous number locomotive. It was sent to the Chicago World's Fair for display by the railroad. At that time it received the yellow and black 'bumble bee' paint job that you see in the 2004 photos below. This engine also co-stared in a number of movies such as "Denver and Rio Grande" starring Edmond O'Brien.
