Special thanks to Kevin&Jacques. Not possible with them reaching out a hand
I'm really pleased to see this video about 6060. I had been wondering if it would ever run again.
Fingers crossed 2025. When it's fired up,I'll be back. Thank you, Andrew, for remembering this old girl.🙋
Good video, but a little off on the Alberta Prairie Railway.
It’s “landlocked”, with 21.2 miles of 60-pound rail, between Stettler MP50.9, and Big Valley MP72.1
Nothing connects anything at either end anymore, from the original Central Western Railway ((CWRL) shortline, defunct in 1997; which ran on the former 106-mile CN Stettler Sub, which CWRL purchased from CN upon abandonmenr in 1985.
Thanks Massey for checking out a piece of my epic railfan vacation. I appreciate you adding this information to the video🙏🚂🇨🇦🚃🚃🚃🙋
My Great Grandpa drove this engine during the 1950's.
Well that's fantastic. A great memory. Thank you for sharing that so everyone can see👍👍

replacing stay bolts removed in 2020,
repairing throttle,
-reinstalling super heater tubes
-other critical upgrades will lead to a boiler -Hydrostatic Test and putting the locomotive back together. It been sonic tested already. Early 2024ish🤞 Thank you for enjoying a piece of my railfanning across Canada
0:39 the engine never left the Alberta Prairie Railway. It's just been in storage. It also wasn't always in storage, it was put out in display for a bit in 2017.
Thank you for stopping by &forwarding your information. The more people who can get this message the faster the return.🚂🙋
@@4everdc302 you do realize these rebuilds take lots of time and money right? These engines are not getting any younger
@@atsfevan0242 Yes sir. Its always money. Some of my subscribers have forwarded funds. One day she runs.
@@4everdc302 yep, but only time will tell when she'll be back.
If you Found the Tender of 6060 Then Where is the Locomotive Engine Itself?
And When is the Locomotive Engine and Tender of 6060 Going to be Restored
Further in the video. In the shed beside(tender)it on a siding. Undisclosed location in the middle of prairie nowhere. Thank you for stopping in🙋
Hello, dear friend very nice upload. Have a nice day!!! big like for you my new friend!
Well thank you very much🙏🚂🚃🚃🚃🇨🇦🇮🇩 🙋
Uhm so it was put out on display for Canada 150 in 2017 so people have seen it since 2011 and I also thought it was common knowledge to anyone who knew anything about the 6060 that it is currently being rebuilt at the Alberta Prairie Railway
2peas. Thanks for posting the information. It's how we all learn&enjoy the hobby.
@@4everdc302 Sorry if I sounded a bit rude when I commented. I looked at it again and it my comment looked a bit mean
@2peaseinapod486 no worries. We need passion to stay on these things or they go away. No offense taken.
Enjoyed the video but can you lose the background music.
Thank you for your comment&taking the time to stop by🙏🚂🙋
Why are you showing a poorly reskinned N&W class J at the beginning?😂😂😂
It's where the search began. Normally 6060 is in place of this imposter🤓 Thank you for checking it out🚂🇨🇦🚃🚃🚃🙋
@@4everdc302 good video but in the future definitely lose the music but other than that it was fun to watch
