- We climb aboard Frisco 1630 for a cab ride as she receives clearance to depart for a trip down the museum's mainline. Enjoy a 4K view of the cab as the 1630's fireman Blake Bushue labors to keep the fire hot on the Russian decapod.
We'd like to thank the crew and the steam department at the Illinois Railroad Museum for inviting us along for the ride!

Man, this sure was a fun one to watch!! Blake was crushing it on the shovel. Thanks for sharing with us as always! 🔥
She's a pretty lively 105 year old. Nice video.
Awesome Video!! I remember the Fireman Blake as a young kid flying RC Planes at Kishwaukee RC Flyers! I'm sure you have made your Grandfather proud! Great work Blake!!
Such a great video. I really enjoyed the ride along. Thanks for sharing.
Great vid! Always love cab rides! The large pipe directly under the butterfly makes me think this was originally a stoker engine that’s now being hand fired - was it? 👍🏻
It was. I don’t know/remember the reason they don’t use it but it still has the stoker as far as I know
The steam department still has its stoker, but it has been removed, and from what I was told, it needed repairs, and the crew just haven't found the time to work on it plus the locomotive is just small enough that hand fired is adequate.
wow that things really rockin
Magnificent example of a Russian decapod. The Gainesville Midland ran 5 of these from 1947 to 1959
From what I've seen IRM does a great stewardship of preserving railroad history. I'd love to visit one day and experience this very locomotive.
I have seen so many live models the full size ones look so weird now.
Crazy.
Looks like a wild ride; what whistle does the 1630 have?

Do they operate in the winter?
The museum is not open year round. Steam operations end in early October.
@@TheSteamChannel thanks
would this size of locomtotive not have a stoker fitted. it kind of looks like it does but it doenst appear to be in use
Wow that's a lot of coal that you have to keep putting in but i did enjoy the video
makes me tired just watching that guy shovel all that coal.. that was a lot of coal he tossing in there ALL the time
Building up fire mass at departure, since the fire had settled down low while sitting. Once it gets going it won't need as much for a little while at least.
