Beautiful old machines. There is a real nostalgia around steam trains. I still remember seeing the odd one or two a a child. Thank you so much for taking us along. 🙂👍🏻👍🏻
That was my favorite, I would like to see one in action some day. I'm glad you liked it, it made my job worth doing. And thanks for watching and your support.
Dardanelle & Russellville #9 is a 2-6-0 “Mogul” built by Baldwin in 1884, for the New Orleans & North Eastern as number 232. Then moved to the Birmingham Rail & Locomotive Co. in 1917 after it was rebuilt. And was brought by the Dardanelle & Russellville Railroad and renumbered to #9. After being moved and renumbered, it pulled trains through out the Dardanelle & Russellville Railroad system. Until it was retired in 1963. And was purchased by the Mid-Continent Railway Museum in 1969. And returned to operation for the museum in the 1960s and 1970s and was put in storage after operation. In the early 1990s, the locomotive came to operation at the museum again. And operated until the engine made its last operation. Today, #9 is on static display at the museum. Were it is today. Lake Superior & Ishpeming 22 is a 2-8-0 “Consolidation” built in 1910 by Baldwin Locomotive Works. And was used by the Marquette & Eastern Railroad as #38, until the railroad was merged to the Lake Superior & Ishpeming Railroad and was renumbered to 22. After being moved and renumbered, the engine had pulled trains through out the LS&I system. Until being retired, and was restored to operation by the Marquette & Huron Mountain Railroad tourist line in 1963. It operated at the railroad until 1965. Today, the locomotive is on display at the Mid-Continent Railway Museum. Were it is today.
Thanks for all the great info. I'm no train expert. I just like taking everyone around Wisconsin. But now I have to wait till the virus is gone. My UA-cam channel will suffer bad. But no harm done. I do this for free.
Hi Cindy, Been very busy helping my brother out. And been trying to do as much traveling as I can before it all ends. I would like to come out west, but things are tough to get through right now. We will see how things play out. I know I can't get my mind off of the big D. Thanks Cindy for your support.
I love cabooses. Very interesting to see inside one, I'm sure they vary. The high narrow wagons also were wonderful, with a long handle to pull it around.
That was the very first time I was ever in one. I was amazed when I found out that they did away with them all together later. I was so grateful, that they were open after they got that big flood last year. Thanks for watching and supporting me Karen. God bless.
Thanks for the info. Sorry i'm late on respond. UA-cam for some reason does not let my comments come through. It said it was held for review in spam. So I had to ok it. And it got lost till now. Thanks for watching.

22 is one of the Lake Superior & Ishpeming Railroad steam locomotives that survived.
#9 is also the oldest locomotive in the collection.
#9 is another excursion locomotive.

Trains have always fascinated me. This is really interesting. I enjoyed the tour. Hope you are well. Best wishes to you.
