Strasburg Railroad, ex-Great Western, 90 is a Class 12-42-F 2-10-0 "Decapod" type steam locomotive owned and operated by the Strasburg Railroad outside of Strasburg, Pennsylvania. Built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1924, 90 originally pulled sugar beet trains for the Great Western Railway of Colorado. In 1967, 90 was sold to the Strasburg Railroad where it now resides and operates today for use on excursion trains. Today, 90 is one of only two operational Decapod type steam locomotives in America, the other being Frisco No. 1630 at the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, Illinois.
