Surviving Steam Photo Archive
The purpose of this site is to show current photographs of surviving steam locomotives around the
country. While any steam locomotive can be included here, as the URL suggests the emphasis is on
"park engines", those engines displayed outdoors in city parks, in widely varying states of repair.
I'd also like to focus on engines that exist outside of preservation, in storage or in some cases even in
scrapyards!

The Merci Train - French 40 & 8 Boxcars
The Merci Train was a train of 49 French railroad box cars filled with tens of thousands of gifts of gratitude from at least that many individual French citizens. They were showing their appreciation for the more than 700 American box cars of relief goods sent to them by (primarily) individual Americans in 1948. The Merci Train arrived in New York harbor on February 3rd, 1949 and each of the 48 American states at that time received one of the gift laden box cars. The 49th box car was shared by Washington D.C. and the Territory of Hawaii.
