I wrote a lengthy reply to daveydoodle86 in this comments section for any body wanting to see footage of #250 as she worked freight in her original shortline days. Thank you for sharing your videos. They are quite interesting and are a real treat.
That locomotive must’ve seen better days when she used to operate. Also I couldn’t help but notice that the coaches looked similar to the ones at the Strasburg Railroad.
At long last footage of my baby running with sound instead of radio static. I try to visit 250 as often as I can at Edaville because unfortunately 250 is now a static display so I always try to spend time around the old girl and comfort her because Edaville isn't doing anything to keep her in good presentable condition but as long as 250 is still around I am glad.
She is better off like how she is now than scrapped. One of these day me and a couple of my friends are going to try and ask Edaville for permission to cosmetically restore 250 and make her more presentable to the public. And hopefully fix her recently broken bell cord but only time will tell if my friends and I can do that for now we just sit and wait until the right time.

Nice to see footage of 250 with better quality and better sound! Footage of this engine is very scarce.
I wholeheartedly agree. Especially under the "Wolfeboro Railroad" flag.
Never heard of this place, but glad to know of the existence of another former tourist line that had a steam engine running there.
I only knew very little about the Wolfeboro Railroad before I was given these files. I was surprised to see myself that it had a steam locomotive.
@@DeafBMRailroadFan gotcha
Awesome footage of 250 have anymore
Thank you! Unfortunately, I do not. The rest of what I have are photos.

I've been to Edaville many times and every time we visit, my brother and I walk into the cab of the 250.
I saw that. It's really unfortunate that the locomotive isn't being maintained. Better then scrapped I guess.

@@DeafBMRailroadFan You've seen us before?
@@kevincleary4273 no I only read about it.
I rode this line during its brief existence.
It's a shame that its existence was brief.
How'd it die? Bad management or just lack of interest.
Ex WK&S. Would be AMAZING to reacquire this prairie for excursion service
Edaville Railroad currently owns the locomotive.
@@DeafBMRailroadFanbut there’s no standard gauge track at Edaville or is there
@@nicholasmedovich8691 no there isn't. The locomotive is on display.
@@DeafBMRailroadFanwhat about the coaches. Are they still surviving or were they scrapped
@@nicholasmedovich8691 to my knowledge I think a couple of them are in California know. I forget what railroad has them though.
250 does well operating over this heritage railroad, back then around the time the Wolfeboro Railroad was in service.
