I saw it in Illinois a few years ago. A real treat for rail fans.

I never seen a large steam engine (except in action in the 1940's) away from a museum (saw one a couple years ago in the Henry Ford museum in Detroit) and now 4041 will stop in my city just a couple miles from my home! I'm expecting to have to work my way through crowds of sightseers and would like some thoughts on the minimal equipment that should be in my bag. I am thinking, since I'll most likely have to walk quite a distance I'll carry my Canon 80d, 17-55mm f2/8 and 70-200 f2/8 lenses. Nothing else except maybe a spare battery. Being in my 80's but with a new knee I should be able to walk at least a mile from a parking place and back again. Really don't have a clue what to expect - the excitement is building!
