    A diesel locomotive takes the polar express due to FRA requirements. That's funny.

    This rolling line skit is in fact loosely based on a true story. When I was volunteering my O gauge trains at a model train show last December, the Polar Express engine I used broke a gear and was serviced inoperable. Since I forgot to bring the backup polar express engine, I had no choice but to place a (T4 and PTC compliant) CSX ET44AH on the front of the Polar Express, with the 1225 decoupled and stored to the side.

    They say pilots are the best and safest right after they have gotten their license or a new rating. I feel like a steam locomotive and its crew is in a similar situation. Probably safer and more reliable for that one day of operation than anything else on the railroad around it. I have been on and around so many excursions where the steam locomotive is literally the one thing that hasn’t had a problem on the trip.

    PTC is the stupidest regulation that the FRA ever wrote. It is essentially just something they used to phase out older locomotives and gain more control over the industry. If you really look at the data it has not improved safety in any measure and has created more technical hazards.
