May 12th, 2013 the Swedish Railroad Museum’s traditional Family Day took place, and of course some of us who organise the 2014 Steampunkfestival were also there. Two brave souls kept watch at the locomotive which we plan to redesign and which we already start regarding as ours – an E2 loco, more precisely number 904.
Many visitors were curious and intrigued, keen to take a closer look at strage hats and remarkable brazen contraptions. Possibly a broadsheet or two found their way to some handbag or other.
The weather was great and by and by, more of us came along, together with the local steampunkers from Gävle and the surrounding area. We even made a tour with our favourite vintage train; hopefully, you will soon be able to read more about this journey here!
