Weekend Steam II: 2 1/2% Grade

 The writeup says it is 1 in 42, which is real close to 2 1/2 percent. It doesn't sound like much for money, but for a train, that is a big deal. Watch the engineer deal with it.

Wheelslip really beats up the rails and it is tough on the wheels and the machinery.

That looked like they might have been on the verge of getting a helper engine.
