The Hesston Steam Museum. Hesston Indiana USA. Sunday, September 12th, 2010.






An historic and somewhat forgotten piece of Chicago railroading, was the 2 foot narrow guage train that operated at Chicago's Brookfield Zoo from 1967 until 1985.

The engine shown here, is a former Meter Guage industrial 0-8-0 steam locomotive that was built and operated in Germany originaly.
It is currently under restoration at the Hesston Steam Museum.
