- This is a few shots of the newly rebuilt Texas State Railroads ex 400, which has been back numbered to Magma Arizona Railroad No. 7. These scenes took place Saturday, April 19, 2014, the day before Easter.
There is a shot of the train passing Fairchild, then approaching East Maydelle to unload passengers. After, diesel 7 passes and MARR 7 was turned at the Maydelle turntable. Last is the Easter train returning to the Rusk, TX station.
Magma Arizona hauled copper for a living and painted the smoke bodies of their locomotivesthat color. Bells ahead of the stack was also a trademark. Their engine #6 is displayed in Scottsdale AZ with the same characteristics. #6 is a 2-6-0.
It's a logging 3 chime!
Magma Arizona #7 packs a headlamp/bell configuration I haven't seen very often on a 2-8-2 Baldwin logger; front-cover headlamps and smokebox-top bells are found more often on main-line steamers for certain Class 1 roads from all the U. S. builders.
What kind of whistle is this? An L&N, Central Of Georgia or a Loneghan from the B&O?
The Magma and Arizona engines used to have the high headlight and bell between domes. The M- A moved the bells to the front, that is why they don't hang from the front like a mainline one, but sit on top of the front. I have seen pictures of the 7 as the T&GW 30 with bell on top and high headlight. Magma & Arizona 6 is the same way, it was between last dome and cab, now it and the dynamo are up front.
@@nssteampunk4865 It's a Crosby Roundtop 3/Logging 3 Chime.
Magma Arizona took cues for appearance from their interchange partner, Southern Pacific.
I believe this was the engine used to film the train robbery scene in How the West Was Won.
Great footage! She's one of the classiest looking Mikados I've ever seen!
When I first clicked on this video I noticed the steam locomotive seen here I recognized since I saw one I believe from the same class at a small park in Arizona
You probably were looking at the Magma #6 now at the McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park in Scottsdale?
