WM #501 helps the Consolidated 734 in and out of the station at Cumberland Maryland. The engine house for the big steamer is across the Potomac in West Virginia where there is a town ordinance against coal fired locomotives. They can fire it but not run it! 501 pulls it across the river where the hogger can take over.
