Strasburg1991 With enough money you can fix anything. I knew an old engineer from Amtrak who started as a Fireman on the PRR. He said that the G 5s fired easy and rode better than the K 4. Is the G 5 at Strasburg now.
Some of the best days of my life were spent working on 1361. Met a lot of great people and made a ton of great memories
That is so true my friend.

For my 20th birthday on the 20th, before I blow out the candles, my wish is gonna be "Bring back 1361!"
Well Richard talking with some friends up in the Altoona area progress is being made and work on 1361 is moving forward!
James McCann Hope it goes forward! Hope 1361 gets put back together too!
