When viewing this video, it is important to understand and realize this locomotive was built and put into service in 1881. Almost 130 years ago! Now, what do you think that we've built that will still run 130 years from now?
@MrRGS41 WELL IF YOU WANT TO BE Technical about it, yes im gong to be an Operator. bUT WHEN YOU TALK TO Art Mitchel, Or Phil Johnson ( major guys at the CRRM) You don't ask to be a OPERATOR, i asked to be a driver. It is a small line between engineer and driver. Both ways, you make the locomotive go back and forth and you sit in the cab.

@mcr0928 You don't DRIVE a locomotive! Sounds like you mean your training to be the engineer, this means your learning to operate it.

@CoasterFan2105 RGS 41 at Knotts is a c-19 also I believe.

@Chatzi473 That is true. I meant to say 340 is the only other surviving D&RG C-19. But 41 is a C-19 as well.
CoasterFan2105 1 year ago
346 is a C-19! She is one of three still left. The others are @ knotts Berry farm. RGS 41 and D&RGW 340. They all were built in 1881.
