Incredible New Oddity at Ripley's!

By Christina Vercelletto July 29, 2015

The exhibit officially opens at 2 pm on July 29; the first 200 general-admission ticket holders will receive a special giveaway and the chance to meet and greet Mr. Acton.

And as if this display could get any more unique, the "steampunk" style classic locomotive has aspects of a plane, like wings. What more could a kid ask for, being able to climb onto it? They can! Wee visitors can enter the child-sized engineer cab, with a fully operable throttle, brake, and forward levers.

All aboard!
