All, these remarkable photos were taken in Minersville, PA by Joe Fusco. That's our own Bernie Perch in the 2nd image, standing back from the locomotive, enjoying a blast from a whistle he made. The whistle mounted on the 113 is the same one Bernie brought to Sheepscot last spring. Thanks to Joe Fusco for sharing his fabulous pictures!
