The engineer in the video is my grandpa who passed away 10 years ago this August. He had been a part of Niles Canyon Railway since I was a toddler, it was so nice to see him at the controls once again. We all still miss him terribly, thank you for sharing this. He truly loved volunteering at the Railroad.
Thanks for sharing that. John was a lot of fun to work with on the 918 project and he was there every weekend when we were getting her painted. We really miss him too!
Love the music of that 567 and the A-200. I have driven a GP-7, a GP-10, and a GE 44 Tonner here at the Florida Railroad Museum and what an experience for a 14 year old.
Hello, Just want to say that I've definitely enjoyed watching this video many times, but just caught the part with the wheelslip at the crossing, The Engineer caught it immediately, very well done. You sounded surprised when you said "Was that the wheelslip light?"
