WHERE THE WHEELS OF FREEDOM ROLL - AMERICAN FREEDOM TRAIN 250

Tucked away and largely forgotten in the industrial bowels of Cleveland, Ohio are the remaining stalls of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad roundhouse. Here, a dedicated team of locomotive preservationists have labored for fifteen years to bring to life one of this nations most historic steam trains - the American Freedom Train. This video takes you inside Stall Number 2 of the historic roundhouse and reveals what was originally the Reading 2100 - now transformed into AFT 250 by skilled craftsman from American Steam Railroad Preservation Association - an all-volunteer non-profit organization dedicated to preserving steam locomotives and other historic railway equipment for future generations to enjoy.
