But Forneys were amazing little puffers, that really changed the way a locomotive could be engineered and were often the locomotive of choice for municipal transit and narrow gauge short lines! This is all about the Forney Locomotive!

DISCLAIMER: I am not a University-educated historian, Alex the Historian was a nickname I got while working at Disneyland as a tour guide. After 6 years of using it as a stage name for my channel, it would be detrimental to the channel to suddenly change the name.
