There are very few railroads in the United States that have the availability to run steam locomotives triple-headed. The Strasburg Rail Road in eastern Pennsylvania is one of those few lucky places. Other places that could offer it have similar locomotive heritages, wheel arrangements, and enough restored freight cars to recreate an authentic scene from a railroad's heyday. At Strasburg, not so much. This particular Carl Franz "stealth photo charter" was advertised to have triple-headers - one of the main reasons I attended. I knew that combining a 2-6-0, 4-8-0 and 2-10-0 with the railroad's normal photo freight consist would look odd - but this was something I didn't want to miss. There were other double-header shots and solo shots during the day that could be considered more authentic. But the triple-header - that was fun. If not a bit overkill...
