Yesterday Barbara and I battled the traffic and later the elements and travelled over the Delaware River to, you guessed it, Delaware to take a ride on the Wilmington & Western Railroad. Our train was pulled by ole #58 a 0-6-0 steam locomotive built in Philadelphia in October 1907. This locomotive has changed its number and owners over the years but was returned to her original number and donated to the Wilmington & Western Railroad in 1997 where she now proudly steams through the Delaware countryside. We enjoyed a 1.5 hour ride through the countryside. Delaware, in this area, is very wooded and green. Along the way we follow and cross Red Clay Creek for a quick stop at the Mount Cuba Picnic Area and on to the town of Ashland and back.
