    Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait for 1361 to run again. When it does, tickets will sell out in 2 seconds!

    Man, that is one melodic whistle! What a thrill hearing it, and thanks for sprinting all over the grounds to get those shots Nick!
    I noticed 643 has TWO turbogenerators on the smokebox. I wonder why two instead of the usual one?
    Hey, I loved that mass "lunch whistle" blow!
    Thanks for bringing us along!

      Power draw is why. 1 Dynamo can't make enough wattage to handle all of the loads, so they use 2. Usually one runs the headlight, while the other runs the cab lights and radio.

    Excellent video Nick!! That whistle sound has a very distinct sound, big and robust. Your ground level shots are some of your coolest looking in the video. Seeing the wheels up close and the the track flexing at the joints is something you don’t see everyday.

    Awesome catches Nick!! Also cool you got 643 participating in the whistle blow; I was up with the traction engines when it happened Saturday. Can’t wait to hear it on 1361 one day!

    643 is such a neat little engine, it's a shame she's confined to only half a mile of track.

    From the angle shoot as you look across the road there where the rocks and grass are mounded up, I think that is a old rock Cory where the no trust passing sing is at.

    It makes me wonder what they did with the old Pennsylvania passenger cars they had sitting farther up the a bit years ago before they started using those two flat car and built them into open air cars. There is alot of stuff I remember about my old home town you are at in this video brother and the Grove
