Album Info:One of the premier showpiece engines at the 2011 Rock Island Train Festival was this replica of the original CPRR Leviathan, long since scrapped in the early 1900's. It made its debut at Trainfest 2009 in Owosso, MI. The train was built from scratch by Mr. Dave Kloke, unlike the original, this replica burns oil instead of wood to generate stream.
