If you want to drive the train just drive "Old Henry" on up to Baker City, Oregon and then 23 miles West on Highway 7 to McEwen and you too can drive a real steam locomotive at the "Sumpter Valley Railroad". We have several options available from an hour or so with just a locomotive after our regular weekend runs to an all day, on a Friday, at the throttle with a work train behind you. I can tell you there is nothing quite like pulling throttle on a real live steamer.

Has it got a steering wheel? I'm afraid that even my trains have got to have a steering wheel. Here's the one I've been driving for 10 years now:
I don't think that even the cruise ship we were on had a steering wheel, probably just a computer joy stick or something as boring to steer the ship with.
I think I would still like to pull the levers on a steam engine.
Thanks for offering.
