  • Santa Fe 4-8-4 3751, owned and maintained by the San Bernardino Railroad Historical Society, moves around Amtrak’s Redondo Yard in preparation for display at nearby Los Angeles Union Station the following day.
    3751 backs out of the SBRHS house track onto the turntable, then pulls onto an adjacent pit for servicing. Then, after coupling up to private car National Forum, the locomotive backs through the yard to the north end where she will spend the night before running to LAUS the following day.
    Photographer is a volunteer SBRHS. Redondo Yard is not publicly accessible and requires approval from Amtrak.

    Very impressive and handsome looking 4-8-4 type steam locomotive, it's great to see ATSF 3751 back in operation again as I really like the Santa Fe rr 4-8-4 locomotives.

    This blows my mind! To think that there were people capable of building such an incredible machine and it still runs just as good today is astounding.

    I'll be seeing 3751 again on Sunday for the event. While I originally didn't plan on it as I saw her last year at Fullerton Railroad Days, being how it's at the LA Union Station for the weekend has made me interested in going again. Plus I spent a whole summer working there once so it be nice to go back.

    It's a shame that Amtrak hasn't done any steam excursions like the used too. I wish they would change their policy back so they could do those again. It would be amazing to see 2926 and 3751 double head a special across southern California. You know what, while wishing for things that won't happen, I want the 21st Century Steam program revived with Norfolk Southern. lol

    I got some news for the future of 3751 when i got into the cab of 3751...
    Yes they want to run 3751 on the mainline for excursions but it is difficult to get 3751 back on the mainline

      and expensive. Most people don't realize how much is involved in a modest run to even San Diego, when they demand the locomotive come cross-country.

    • @jonathanschoen807
      @jonathanschoen807  Рік тому +7

      Yes, in both 3751 and 2926 have 80” drivers. The most noticeable difference in the drive gear is that the 2900s have roller bearings while the 3751 class has friction bearings.
