Description:  The friendly conductor waves as he heads toward the West Baden resort along the original trackage. Much like most older, original trolleys, the ride is a mild jiggle and bump along the way!

French Lick & West Baden Trolley #1
Title:  French Lick & West Baden Trolley #1
Description:  The French Lick # West Baden trolley #1 heads around the curved side of the new casino. The trolley #313 found by the indiana Rwy Museum which looked similar to the original one was brought over from Portugal in 1986-7. It was rebuilt with the cupola added to resemble the original FLWB trolley from 1903. A diesel engine instead of the original electric catenary system and an hydrostatic transmission was installed to permit easier use making the original catenary power system unnecessary

French Lick & West Baden Trolley #1
Title:  French Lick & West Baden Trolley #1
Description:  The throttle of the 1930 trolley sits on the control panel which has labels in Portuguese. Surprisingly, the control panel at opposte end of the trolley has its markings in English! When the trolley has to switch directions for a return trip, the throttle handle is removed and carried to the opposite end control panel.

French Lick & West Baden Trolley #1
Title:  French Lick & West Baden Trolley #1
Description:  The opposite end control panel from the previous photo shows the console markings in English, rather than the Portuguese at the opposite end. Note the throttle handle is missing. The conductor moves it to the end he needs according to the direction he wants to head. Hence, the trollwy is never turned around but instead does the "ping pong" action, much like the old Lionel toy trolley with its reversing bumper.

MG 2-6-0 #97 - Mobile & Gulf Ry
Title:  MG 2-6-0 #97 - Mobile & Gulf Ry
Description:  What an unusual final resting place for this little 2-6-0 Mogul bullt by Baldwin in October of 1925 originally for Havana Stock Co. It was never delivered but stored at Eddystone until being sold in 1932 to the Veterans Hospital in Perry Point, MD as their #1000. From there, it bounced over to QMC-USA as #5631 at Camp Davis, NC in 1941-42. Then it moved to the 829th Air Force Base in Godsen, AL as USATC #6932. Next it landed via WAA to the Mobile & Gulf Rwy in 1948 as MG #97 in Browville, AL. Then it appears to have moved over to Ocean City Western in Berlin, MD as their #97. Finally it ended up somehow at the Indiana Ry Museum in French Lick, IN. Wow, what a life!
