This really bizarre locomotive is a Chesapeake & Ohio M-1 steam turbine. Proof that reality is stranger than fiction some times.

About Me
- Mike Jobe (espeemike on the blogs)
- I am a 50's something middle class American man. Among my hobbies are woodworking, stain glass, and railroading. I am currently working towards my MMR (Master Model Railroader) and this blog will give me an opportunity to show my skill set. My father joined up with the Southern Pacific Railroad shortly after world war II. He worked there until his retirement. My wife's grandfather, great grandfather and great great grandfathers were engineers for the Cotton Belt RR and logging railroads of old. With that said, this blog is pretty much dedicated to my interest of railroading (both model and prototype)and its various elements. In addition, some of this blog will be focusing on the Disneyland Railroad of which, I spent many of my childhood and adult moments on. I welcome any comments.

The M-1's and Jawn Henry were sure beasts! Thanks for sharing, Mike.
Until just recently, I had never seen this locomotive. I am not a C & O Modeler but this really is impressive.. thanks
