On their recent rail fan expedition, Michael Guy and Dave Wetherald also visited the New Hope Valley Railway (NHVR) in New Hill, North Carolina.  The NHVR is also home to the North Carolina Railway Museum. Click here for more information.

While visiting the museum, Dave and Michael had the opportunity to train in the operation of their operational steam locomotive as they show in the video above.
