Youngstown, Engine 58!
The Youngstown Steel Heritage Foundation is located at 2261 Hubbard Road, Youngstown, OH 44505. Their mission statement is to preserve Youngstown area's steel industry history and heritage on their 1.2 acres of land.
58 was originally built by the Jones and Laughlin Steel Co. by the H.K. Porter Company in 1937. It is a 23" 0-4-0T with 15x16 cylinders, 33" drivers, a traction effort of 16,700 lbs, and in working order it weighs 93,000 lbs. It worked the J&L's Pittsburgh Works mill moving ingot trains around. In 2015, Youngstown Steel Heritage Founder and President, Rick Rowlands, purchased the locomotive from a private owner in Middlefield, OH. After a full restoration, J&L 58 ran once again on March 24, 2019. On select weekends, it gives rides to the public. ----------------------------- Thanks for watching!

" I will send hornets before you."
That little quote from Exodus has been a favorite for many years. It happened. Our burglars came back, and examined the Weber Grill sitting outside the garage. It held a secret, and the heinous perpetrators got a nasty surprise.
Roll That Beautiful Bean Footage!
Susan rode along for a couple of rounds with our farmer today. That was a huge thrill! One more 40 to go.
