The marion is my second favorite thing to watch on the grounds. She's so lovely and graceful and tough all at the same time.

Great silhouette of the Marion Dawn...

She also had a one of a kind (no pun intended) engineer who we really miss...

Super tribute, Mark! Larry IS missed. It's wonderful that the Marion steams on in his memory! I could watch him run that Marion all day long. How he and other operators coordinate all the levers and such to make her function is extremely impressive! And she just sounds SO DARN COOL! :)

I bet it is watching a certain 1911 vintage under-mount traction engine coming up the hill in the parade! :bannana:

Close, Mark, but no cigar. Can you guess? I think so...my favorite doesnt get to run in the parade. Hey, there's an idea!! Portable track maybe.... Hmmm. Ortner, Marion, 353 and Avery. 1-4, respectively. WMSTR is so fun!:o:p
