A trip on the Fairy Queen

“If you want to get from A to B quickly, don’t go on the world’s oldest working steam locomotive, the Fairy Queen. Part of the charm of such a trip is its unpredictability. And the “old lady”, as she’s affectionately known by some, certainly is charming.” Kay McMahon tells of her weekend trip on Indian Rail’s Fairy Queen, pulled by the world’s oldest main-line steam locomotive.
