Five of the six north american "Thomases" are passive cabs that get pushed by a locomotive at the rear of the excursion train. However the one steam powered, one, rebuilt from a switcher based not far away in East Stroudsburg, PA, so it could conceivably be that, though given limited water capacity it's unclear if that goes out on its own without an assist from the back or at the ready. It certainly wouldn't transit any mainline unaccompanied, if it even got there by rail rather than truck.

Incidentally the picture is likely 5 more more years old.
