The Strasburg Rail Road dates back to 1837, when it was completed, and was a horse drawn railroad until they purchased their first Norris-built 4-2-0 steam locomotive in 1851.

The Strasburg Railroad is a classic short line railroad in the Strasburg and Paradise townships of Pennsylvania.

Locomotive #475 regularly serves the surrounding farming communities with affordable rail transport as well. This includes rail to car transport of feeds, grains, and other bulk transfer items.

The Western & Norfolk #475 locomotive is:

  • built by Baldwin Locomotive Works
  • Build date 1906
  • Now owned by Strasburg Railroad
  • Has driver diameters of 56 inches
