    Can’t wait to see this on Santa trains and fall foliage trains with 425 when she comes back!

      Our Santa Trains are right around the corner! Also, we hope to have #425 back next year. Stay tuned!

    That's got to be the first purple engine i've ever seen!

    • @doubleutubefan5
      @doubleutubefan5 Год назад

      2nd time for me. The other purple locomotive I've seen is LNER A4 class steam from the UK

    • @RBMN
      @RBMN  Год назад

      It may very well be but actually is "Blue Mountain blue" which can definitely appear to be purple depending on the lighting!

    They did an outstanding job on it! Believe it or not, I was scratching my head at first as to why it was painted in a dark shade of blue though it does also look more purple. I did learn from a friend it was a paint scheme a diesel had when BM&R now R&N had one of their diesels painted when it began in the fall of 1983 as a shortline.

    • @RBMN
      @RBMN  Год назад

      Your friend is right, that is "Blue Mountain blue" that was used on our very first diesel locomotives back in 1983!

    How long are these units going to stay in this paint?

    • @RBMN
      @RBMN  Год назад +1

      We hope to keep freshly painted locomotives like this one looking sharp for as long as we possibly can.

    What type of horn does this have?

    • @RBMN
      @RBMN  6 месяцев назад

      That melodious noisemaker on the roof is a Nathan K3LA horn.

    YOU CAN DO WITHOUT THAT GAWD AWFUL MUSIC.

      Sometimes we like to add music for dramatic effect. Not all of our videos have it, however.
