Classic Steam Engine Rolls Up To Union Station

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — A nearly 90-year-old steam locomotive has rolled up to Union Station for a two-day railroad summit.

The train -- Santa Fe 3751 -- rolled into Union Station from Amtrak's 8th Street Yard late Tuesday night, the San Bernardino Railroad Historical Society said on Facebook.

Hello downtown Los Angeles - it's good to be back.

The train was built in 1927 and will be on display at the end of Track 15 Wednesday and Thursday as part of the 2016 California Passenger Rail Summit, the group said in a press release.

The summit includes panels and other meetings for railroad executives. But the train is available for viewing to the general public.
