I grew up in Spring Valley (right off Barley Mill Road)-- I have such wonderful memories of these trains rolling past the entrance to my neighborhood and hearing that whistle-- I'm so glad that they were able to re-build the line after 2 disastrous floods so that other kids can see the way it used to be. Great history-- Just wonderful!
That's awesome! The only memories I had as a kid with the W&W was riding past Marshallton Yards to the CSX line while the other side of the line was being repaired. That must have been a crazy storm that passed through, but I agree I'm glad they were able to bring it all back to life!
Everyone and their uncle was there that day! I saw you guys pull up at Mt Cuba right as the train was passing! I'm the guy in the blue shirt! Great video!
@railfanentertainment Thanks! The train stopped there to let the PBS film crew on board. They were chasing the train for a while then got on at that spot.
Very Niceeeeee!!! And do u think they should install air rockers on #58 & 98??????? I think they should because they are so much better than air clappers!! And 1 more thing.........I have another railroad how about the pine creek railroad in allaire state park NJ this summer???????
@Shahoofah The past 2 years, we have been trying new whistles to see how they sound. Pufferbelly day is best, because if we don't like it, the second unit is not required to blow. This whistle was a mystery, but we believe it is a factory whistle like 98's. If you look at the whistles, the only difference you really see is the height. Otherwise, they look the same.
@DarkMouseyFan114 The camera I use is a Canon Vixia HFR10, if you are interested in it you should check out B&H Photo and Video's website, they always have nice deals going on over there.
@Strasburg1991 As far as 60, keep dreaming. 60 is so so far gone. 92 however, we do plan to get her running again someday. Money has to be there though.

No problem! Yes they should, they ran a 12:30 and a 2:30 trip last year with both engines, so it should be the same this year.
