I worked there for about 10 years. We all knew that the name steam train didn't represent what we were doing since she steam locomotive had been removed from service for years. We tried to rebrand, but what we found doing market research was most daisy pickers just call excursion trains, steam trains. Also no matter what the actual last car was it was always called the caboose. Same with engineer and conductor. We were all about making money to pay the bills and expand so we just gave the market what they wanted.

This is not a steam train. Diesel locomotives do not operate using steam.
Well they do if equipped with a steam generator or have a coolant leak.
@@kimrok1 Thanks for that. I will reword my comment.

@@kimrok1 That's understandable. I would like to see the steam locomotive restored though. It would surely be a charming addition to Austin.
@@HTV-2_Hypersonic_Glide_Vehicleyou mean it would make for quite the resurgence
Reminds me of train trips through metamora Indiana . And by the way that is not a steam train
