But take a look inside and you\u2019ll find yourself looking at luxury personified. Just outside the Izaak Walton Inn near Essex, you can live in this luxury lodging squeezed in a locomotive engine. This was a personal project by Tom Lambrecht, the General Director of locomotives for Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway in Fort Worth, Texas. His wife, Jamie designed the plush interiors of the locomotive. The locomotive would have been a pile of scrap metal if Tom hadn\u2019t come across it two years ago. Recycling the unused locomotive and turning it into a luxury lodge was a difficult job done well with skylights replacing exhaust fans which have been left in place to create an ambience.<\/p>\n<p>So the next time you decide to spend an alternative vacation, hop into this luxury lodge for a rent of $299 a night. <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"locomotive2.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenlaunches.com\/entry_images\/0210\/24\/locomotive2.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"299\" class=\"mt-image-center\" style=\"text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http:\/\/www.greatfallstribune.com\/article\/20100223\/NEWS01\/2230301\/1002\">Greatfallstribune<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maybe this locomotive reminds you of the one dragging the Polar Express to the North Pole.
