The Return of The Polar Express Sacramento 2021 Edition
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to All!!!
After the California State Railroad Museum’s Polar Express rides were cancelled in 2020 due to COVID-19, the Polar Express trains returned in 2021 with COVID-19 protocols. Although the SMUD substation fire on December 14, caused a major power outage in Old Sacramento and disrupted some rides, it was still a great return of the Polar Express trains with many happy families and volunteers joining in on the fun.
The Polar Express soundtrack playing at the station is owned by Warner Bros. Pictures.

Переглядів 3,1 тис.3 роки тому
In March and April of 2021, Robert Dollar #3 pulled the 2021 steam spring excursions at the Niles Canyon Railway. The #3 hasn’t been seen for several years after the locomotive was pulled off from service in 2016 for a full 1472 day rebuild. During the rebuild, Rizzoli Locomotive Works built a new whistle for the locomotive which is actually #3’s original ALCO 5 Chime. The whistle is dedicated ...

Переглядів 15 тис.3 роки тому
In October and November 2020, the California State Railroad Museum and its Sacramento Southern Railroad brought a rare locomotive, the Amtrak F40PHR #281, back to life for the first time since 2005. AMTK 281 was last operated in September 2005, when the F40 and SP 6051 traveled to San Francisco to pick up SP 2467 for a loan display at the CSRM. In May 2020, the SSRR crew brought the F40 out for...

On October 2020, Roaring Camp & Big Trees operated their rare Heisler locomotive “Tuolumne” #2 after recent mechanical work was performed. At the time this was filmed, the Heisler had just received its original hooter whistle which was repaired by the Rizzoli Locomotive Works. Its amazing hooter whistle echoed once again after almost 20 years! This was my very first ride behind the Heisler and ...

Skookum was also part of this event by making its first appearance pulling regularly scheduled trains after being worked on during the summer.

On July 20, 2019, after an 11-year restoration, the Pacfic Locomotive Association reintroduced the last surviving German Krauss Maffei Southern Pacific 9010. Since SP 9010’s restoration was not yet complete, the locomotive was controlling the train while SP 5623 was the motive power for the SP consist.

On June 1, 2019, Sierra Railway #28 made its first passenger excursion to the public. #28 was taken out of service in February 2009, due to parts in the firebox that were putting the locomotive at risk for a boiler explosion. In August 2013, #28 began its 5-year restoration after receiving funds from the California State Railroad Museum. I was a little disappointed when I found out that #28’s C...

Why did half of the line get turn into a walking trail?

Okay it does running in the city of Fillmore and ventura County Beach areas
Man, seeing thing brings back so many childhood memories. That’s an interesting horn too. is it a European style two tone?
to clarify, the first clip.
No, it's a Leslie A200 that needed some help at the time, sometimes being quilled
Surprised she’s still up and runnin’
Yes, AMTK #281 has been an operational locomotive since October 2020 and later became the secondary motive power on the SSRR.

P3 horn on 133
Nice video though
Sorry this got a little big likes
When Amtrak starts retiring the Amfleet Is for the Airo sets, I hope the CSRM can get their hands on a few of them to put together an Amtrak set. Maybe they can even get a Metroliner cabcar to assemble a 1990s San Diegan set.
Awesome catch. That's nice it returned.
Thanks:) I'm glad it's back!!!
Late comment but nice! I visited Martinez Station once, it was fun.
Great video man
I think amtrak 532 had a new driver and overran the platform
Could be possible.
Why not save California Western 46 from the Pacific Southwest Railroad Museum? Maybe 46 doubleheading with Clover Valley and Skookum, and then maybe it becomes a Mallet tripleheader.
The NCRY Steam Department have a lot in their plate right now and that includes: maintaining their two operating steam locomotives, keeping the privately owned Skookum running in good condition and restoring SP 1744. Sometimes doing too much things is a little too much for the steam crew but who knows:)
💜🚂
*Did not realize we had an operational Daylight E Unit - Beautiful! - **3:26*
We sure do, SP 6051 is a beautiful locomotive at the CSRM.
5623 is a great looking classic loco, love the high hoods!!!
those are some crazy looking locos, if I remember correctly SP brought them in as tunnel motors to pull through the mountains correct? Would love to see Athearn release one in HO scale. Great Video!
Thanks:) The Krauss-Maffei's were never tunnel motors, SP brought them as diesel-hydraulic locomotives and they were used from 1964 to 1968.
🇺🇲🔥
Good video. Subscrito
Thanks:)
What locomotive is SP 6051?
EMD E9
Ok ok thanks!
I’ve never heard an f40 without the hep on… Nice Video!
Thanks:)
10:04 they fired it up for a moment
@@easternroutemainlinevideos6823 AMTK #281 was getting to track speed after leaving the Old Sacramento yard limits.
So they went to Notch8.
@@easternroutemainlinevideos6823 Yes:)
Needs to visit 4449 for a only daylight car and locomotive consist
That would be cool, could happen one day.
Very nice catches especially with the back to back chargers ! I don’t think I’ve ever seen that happened before !
Thanks Brent:) CDTX 2103 struck a big rig trailer at Orwood, CA back in May while leading San Joaquin 711 with AMTK 90278. The charger is being tested on the San Joaquin 713/718 rotation set and hopefully it will be fixed and run under its own power again.
Brilliant video my friend 🙋♂️
Thanks:)
Great catch
Thanks:)
That SP Daylight diesel is just amazing!
It sure is, I love SP #6051:)
Nice. Really nice.
Thanks:)
CC, awesome video. I was in Hanford back in March. I wasn't able to video any trains though. Oh man you have the KFC rail car in your last train. Hopefully next time.
Thanks:)
Didnt know they were running it again, nice video
Thanks:) The footage in this video was taken on October and November 2020.
