Spoiler alert, the paint scheme on 32A's a preservation one. The Milwaukee Road never used it on any of their diesels. The Friends Of The 261 made it up so it'd match their cars and have that vintage feel to it.
@@justahillbilly7777 Thought it looked a bit different, but it is a killer paint scheme and those folks did a superlative job on it. I'd like to see the rest of their train.
I used to live a few blocks from the Milwaukee Road yard in downtown Milwaukee in the 60's and 70's. Brings back great memories - but what's with the maroon? The color scheme I saw back in the day were black on the top and bottom and orange (or faded to yellowish) in the middle. Beautiful train in any color though 😊
In terms of RPMs? Usually between 800 to 900rpm. The speed of the train would be dependent on the the gearing and traction motors. Thanks for watching!
Is that a replica of a previous Milwaukee Road paint scheme or a modern, new paint scheme? I don't recall ever seeing a Milwaukee E unit with so much burgundy on it. It looks great either way, just curious.
Milwaukee E's were painted in UP's shield yellow to match the 'City Of' trains they were assigned. There are a couple of Milwaukee Road E units surviving in this scheme, 36A is the best preserved but sisters 37A and 38A also still exist in various states as far as I can tell, all with the unmistakable yellow paint.
@@alexpaumen3937 ua-cam.com/video/OptYzANWPos/v-deo.html It's actually sister engine 101 it was acquired by the Friends of the 261 and they installed a mechanical bell it here's a video of it in operation 2 years ago back in 2019 this was back when Milwaukee road 261 did some trips on the Twin Cities and Western Railroad the E9 brings up the rear of the consist with no train facilities the E9 would pull the train eastbound back to Minneapolis
Terrible? It was nearly identical to the E-Bells found on the FP45's, SDL39's, some SD40-2's and MILW's MP15AC's. It's a shame 32A can't maintain a throwback fixture like that.
@@milwaukeetrainman9880 I think either rapido's trains or scale trains makes a new top-of-the-line HO scale model of the SDL39 some versions with an original sounding Milwaukee road ebell
E9'S did not come with the ebell. The current bell was as delivered. The E bell control was taking up valuable acreage in the nose that is now taken up by the new event recorder. Don't worry, we still have it.
Healthiest 567s I've heard in a long time!
Time for soundtraxx to go there and record for my HO E9.
Good sound and beautiful video. Thank you.
I could listen to that all day long!
It sounds great! If only modern power still sounded this good. Thanks for the comment, and watching!
That’s one beautiful locomotive!
I liked their pre-Union Pacific paint scheme here. Gave the road it's distinct identity as a passenger carrier.

@@justahillbilly7777 ironically Milwaukee E Units would've sported UP yellow in their service lives
Sweet. That paint scheme is so awesome
Love the sound of those classic Es and Fs.
I like the recessed ditchlights. Preserves the contours of the nose.
True that!
Nice looking video from above with the drone, nice job on the flying. Keep it up and thank you for sharing
That is the sexiest emd engine sound I've ever heard in my life
Glad you enjoyed it! It was NEAT to see and hear it roaring to life.
This sound was associated with all e and f units,switchers,SD and geeps.Even the 567D2/D3/D3A had that rumble
Very cool, We got the opportunity to see that unit last Sunday, Its very nice looking.
That's one gorgeous locomotive! The 567 pair sounds awesome running up and down the rev plane. Gotta love the classics. Amazing video!
Awesome engine,, great video love the drone view... & a hello from Milwaukee wisconsin 👍
Howdy fellow Milwaukee resident!
I saw this unit at the SPUD back on Train Day. That’s a mighty fine paint job.
Those CNW Bi-Levels just seem to pop up everywhere. 😂
That they seem to do! Seems like museums and preservation groups love to have them.

That paint scheme *chef’s kiss*
I see she’s got a historically accurate Leslie now. I’m unsure if this is a temporary replacement for the M3.
The M3 will be returning to her today. It's been cleaned out and voiced, sounds a lot better now. The RS2M will be there to stay as well
Thanks to Gavin and I. The M3 was properly tuned/voiced and sounds great.
The two gentlemen above gave her her voice back. Sounds great, they did a splendid job.
@@CascoValleySpotter Looking forward to hearing your handy work.
Very cool I wonder where they keep all their Milwaukee road passenger cars?
Most of the more expensive cars are sorted in a separate buildings around the area. We don’t have enough space to store all at Harrison street.
@@MinnesotaOtter Right I gotcha
Where did they get the locomotive from?
They got it from the Wisconsin and Southern.
these train workers load testing a 66 year old MILW 202A E9A
Nice smoke operation.🚂🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞
What did the drone shots add? It's not a flipping train game.
What is the max engine speed for 567 motors?
In terms of RPMs? Usually between 800 to 900rpm. The speed of the train would be dependent on the the gearing and traction motors. Thanks for watching!
Would love to seen a walk thru of her.

I thought these were rebuilt with 645’s when they got HEP? Doesn’t have the “whine” to it a 567 does.
No
It looks like they took off that terrible ebell on that E9
Isn’t that the same E-Bell that was on Iowa Pacific 103?
