- Rail Festival 2023, first day June 24th. Carillon Park's new 3 foot gauge "American" type locomotive is shown climbing the 3% grade and crossing over the 1/8 scale railroad tracks. The Carillon Park Rail and Steam Society (CPRSS) trains are shown around the track including a live steam Shay locomotive and the CPRSS's main loco, physically a model of a GE Dash-9 in the BNSF 7695 "Golden Swoosh" paint scheme. The full size (prototype) BNSF 7695 is actually an ES44DC. The loco is pulling 10 passenger cars. Carillon Park is located in Dayton, Ohio. Video file reference: 20230624 124200
Such a shame the two ft had to be electric 😕 I really wanted to see it but changed my mind also did they shorten the 7 1/2 in gauge line I remember it having more track
Its actually 3' not 2'. Yes a lot of the 7.5 had to be taken out of service temporarily to get the 3' gauge built. You can see some of the out of service RoW to the right starting at 2:00.
C'mon electric is NOT bad!
@davidng2336 not worth 57 dollars in gas to visit, I'd rather go to cass , Lebanon Valley, age of steam, etc the only reason I would even consider is if it was steam because I want to talk to the engineers so I can continue to figure out how/where it's best to get the license to run one
@@wesbrackmanthercenthusiast4695 then yes go to those places because those are authentic steam.
