Returning Cumberland Icon #734 to service is a pivotal step in preserving a cherished piece of local heritage and ensuring its continued role in the community. This storied locomotive, a symbol of Cumberland for 30 years, holds immense historical significance for Cumberland and the surrounding region. By restoring #734 to operational status, we not only honor its legacy but also provide an opportunity for both residents and visitors to connect with the rich history of railroading. The restoration will enable #734 to once again traverse our railroad, offering educational tours and nostalgic rides that celebrate its storied past. This revival is essential for maintaining the cultural and historical fabric of our community, enriching the local tourism landscape, and fostering a greater appreciation for the role railroads played in shaping our history.
