    418 and 498 look big and beautiful! I always enjoy seeing the "Blimps". And I also enjoying seeing Steeple Cab 1624 trundling up and down the track. I have many of the Pacific Electric equipment as Suydam HO brass models. It's nice to know that some of the 'real' ones are still around.

    I found the museum in July of 1963 and was ecstatic to find a few red and yellow cars that had been saved. I joined at that time but was never able to participate due to work schedules and distance from home. I quit membership after 46 years. It is worth a look but they have too much equipment most of which will never be restored.

      And it's still running! Steeple cab #1624 is still alive and kickin' at the Southern California Railway Museum, formerly known as the Orange Empire Railway Museum. 😊

      That locomotive (Union Pacific MK-10 Mikado #2564) is currently sitting there because it's too big and heavy be placed anywhere else. But the museum hopes to restore it to working order in the near future

      JungleYT 418 was built in 1911 or 1913. 318 was built in 1930. 418 and 498 can only go about 35 mph. 318 can go over 60 mph, it has much faster motors.

      @TrainTrackTrav  6 лет назад +2

      If you are referring to the Red Cars, technically speaking, they are classified as "Interurbans".

    • @johnnyjames7139
      @johnnyjames7139 5 лет назад

      Ярослав Овчаренко we call them trolley or interurban depending upon the service being locale or longer distance.
