Meet the Dollywood Express White Pass #70. What a beauty! Built in 1938 and she's still going st

I discovered this beauty at the Dollywood Amusement Park in Piegon Forge, Tennessee last weekend while on vacation. Isn't she a beauty. You don't see trains like this around very often anymore.

Built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, this locomotive was the first 2-8-2 owned by the White Pass. It is one of Dollywood's most famous ride vehicles, and burns Two tons of coal each day. She was built in 1938, and operated on the White Pass until 1963. She was sold to Silver Dollar City TN in 1977, and became known as Cinderella and was undergoing a rebuild and in 2010 went back in service.
