<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tracking the Light is on location at North Conway, New Hampshire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first time in more than four years Conway Scenic 0-6-0 7470 (former Grand Trunk) has a fire in its boiler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gordon Lang, who on August 3, 1974 was the first to light a fire in 7470 on Conway Scenic, did the honors again just after 3pm today (May 31, 2019).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The locomotive was last steamed in January 2015, and after months of restoration and repair will soon be moving again under its own power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made these photos of 7470 using my FujiFilm XT1 with a 12mm Zeiss Touit lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
