Posted by Bob Kise on June 16, 2020  Nice shot, Kevin. If I'm not mistaken, the 490 is the only preserved locomotive with the Franklin Type A poppet valves intact. Posted by agedrooster24 on June 16, 2020  For my 80th birthday in 2011 my son took me to Washington, DC. A side trip by train to Baltimore to the C&O Museum. Highlight was the Allegheny Locomotive. It would be a real treat to return but age and COVID now limits my travel. Wonder shot to a truly great locomotive with a impressive history.
