Imagine you have a toy train that is powered by a tiny steam engine that works just like a real steam engine in a big train. That's what a live steam locomotive is! It's a miniature version of a train engine that uses steam to move the train.
Now, imagine that you have a big backyard where you can build a train track that weaves in and out of trees and flowers. That's what outdoor railroading is all about! It's a hobby where people build train tracks outside and run their live steam locomotives on them.
The Live Steam & Outdoor Railroading magazine is all about this fun hobby. It teaches you how to build and maintain your own train tracks and live steam locomotives. There are also lots of pictures of other people's train setups to give you ideas and inspiration.
So, if you love trains and being outside, then live steam and outdoor railroading might be the perfect hobby for you! And this magazine is a great way to learn more about it.
