The steam engine, charmingly called “Old Smokey,” is being donated to the non-profit, Kentucky Steam Heritage Corporation. While it is bittersweet to see this locomotive go to a new home, R. J. Corman is excited to make this train accessible to as many people as possible for education and inspiration. Old Smokey will become part of the Kentucky Rail Heritage Center’s rail museum in Irvine, KY.

Parents and teachers were also intrigued by the company’s booth at Engineers Day (E-Day). This was all part of the University of Kentucky’s 2020 E-Day celebration held on the university campus in Lexington.
