GVRX 2248
Title:  GVRX 2248
Description:  On display at the Fort Worth & Western Grapevine station is the 1896 Cooke 4-6-0 originally built for Southern Pacific 2248. This locomotive is affectionately known as "Puffy the Steamer" by Grapevine Vintage Railroad crew and passengers but has been sidelined with mechanical issues for the past several years. Hopefully this beautiful piece of living history will return to active duty soon.
