railfancwb Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Has that steam locomotive been modified as a test bed? The item above the piston valve doesn’t look stock. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
railfancwb Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 "Santa Fe, All the way."Believe at least one of those Alco PA locomotives still survives... Some were much traveled after they left the Santa Fe, spending time in Mexico and later back in the states. Maybe on Delaware and Hudson? This photo is from the Streamliners event in Spencer NC a few years ago. The loco was being restored to operating condition.

railfancwb Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Block from my wife's childhood home, the major rail tracks crossed a 4 lane freeway at road level. High speed trains depended on signals for safety. A few times the signals didn't work. Cars on freeway can't compete with fast train. She tells of the time when a gas tanker was on the tracks and the signal didn't work. She could hear the driver screaming for a long time while the tanker burned. And probably for a long time after that day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Oddly enough, she misses the sounds of the trains going down the tracks and the whistle sounding in the distance. Our bedroom is in the basement and cut off from the outside, so I put a video camera of the driveway on the TV in the bedroom along with an outside microphone so now she can lay in bed and hear the train sounds and whistles at night, she missed from her childhood.
