![]() | Inland Lakes Railway No15 Inland Lakes Railway's new Nw2 heads to the Mount Dora runaround to run around the train and get it ready for the 3:00 Champion train. The Nw2 is on lease from a leasing company in Georgia. I believe it was used in some sort of a factory, therefore the cab had been lowered, leading to the offset light to the left of the cab, and the side rails running along side the locomotive had been added. Inland lakes has done a great job in restoring this locomotive. |
