Nice video of the Milwaukee Road 261!
Terrific shots! There is nothing like a steam engine to quicken the pulse!!
Good Stuff RMA, specially the ghost csxers
Yknow, the Milwaukee steam engine kinda looks like the Santa Fe 3751 except with a different tender.
That was a good train video. What kind of horn did the Milwaukee 261 Steam Engine had at 5:01 of this train video?
10:45 is this in Buckeye Yard?
Parsons.
Which mainline did this run on?
CSX (ex C&O)
