The Tommy G. Robertson Railroad is a heritage railroad and amusement park attraction located in the Six Flags St. Louis amusement park in Eureka, Missouri. It opened with the park on June 5, 1971, when it was then known as the "Six Flags Railroad". Years later, it was renamed the "Tommy G. Robertson Railroad". Today, it is one of the oldest operating rides at Six Flags St. Louis.

Locomotives

Back when the Tommy G. Robertson Railroad was known as the "Six Flags Railroad" in 1971, it used to have two operating 4-4-0 "American" type steam locomotives. Since the 1980s, it now only has one of those operating steam locomotives. Both locomotives run on nonpolluting propane as their fuel source.
