"Mighty Chessie" replica debuted

A replica of the Mighty Chessie locomotive and intermodal car and caboose recently made its debut in Jacksonville, “wowing everyone who came to see it,” the Class I recently announced.

The rubber-tire mini-train, which was built at the CSX Locomotive Shop in Waycross, Ga., is pulled by a scale model locomotive built to exacting specifications atop a compact commercial tractor, allowing CSX employees and neighbors to have the opportunity to experience riding it at various company and community events for years to come.
It's a parade float, basically, with one thing missing. When I watched the video, my response was:

"WHERE'S THE KITTY?!?"
