Albany & Eastern Santiam Branch

[@billlauretti7963]

Great video! It really tells a story about a fascinating shortline RR. And damn, don't they have the best looking locomotives of anyone!

[@pacificrailproductions5281]

I totally agree! Most attractive locomotives I’ve seen on a common carrier freight road!

I prefer the paint scheme of my local RR

@Bulldozer Very similar, but I think the colors are slightly different shades from the CNW colors. I think the green and yellow paint scheme is inspired by the University of Oregon colors.

Beautiful. Rode this line on Father's Day 2016 behind their beautiful SP Black Widow painted SD9. Open cars, biscuits and gravy and bacon, my son, pure heaven. Posted a short video of the engine pulling in.

That sounds delicious and inspiring! I’ve gotta get a ticket soon! Thanks for sharing your experience.

Albany & Eastern is a Beautiful Oregon Shortline Railroad And Great Video 📹 👍

Thank you very much!

Nice to see the Dash 8s still getting a workout in 2022, it's sad seeing them retired from class 1s but I suspect they have a long time left on regional lines like this.
I absolutely love the CNW inspired scheme too, it feels familiar yet unique.

[@pacificrailproductions5281]

I agree! Thanks for leaving your thoughts! It is like CNW reborn.
