Love this video, such a shame this wonderful railroad shut down! Does anyone know what kind of bell is on 506? I've heard it before on older ALCOs, but I never quite put together what it was. Bronze?
Thank you for Watching and Commenting on this video! I am thankful I was able to ride aboard this Excursion Train and record video footage of it. Very sad this Excursion Train is now part of Railroad History.
That RS3U is now pull trains on the Arcade & Attica Railroad. If one is lucky it might be your power on one of their passenger excursions. However I miss those old Empire Express specials from Tioga Junction to Gang Mills.
Damn, I hate to see them shut down...looked like fun. Thanks for posting it.
I totally agree, this was one of the Best Excursion Trains to ride in the Country. Unfortunately this is now part of Railroad History.
