I'm going to visit in-laws in Michigan over the Labor Day weekend, and naturally we're taking the S.S. Badger. I've sworn that I'll never drive through Chicagoland again, and it's a long drive through the Upper Peninsula.
The S.S. Badger is a coal-fired railroad ferry, which now only carries cars and passengers. I'm wondering, is it the last remaining coal-fired, steam-driven vehicle in non-excursion service in the U.S.?
I know there are all sorts of steam locomotives, but aren't they all on tourist lines?
