Nice it's got an M3 on it now last time I saw it in operation it had a P3

I rode it for a school field trip in 2002, and it had a totally different paint scheme, it was really the same scheme as 2008, but the major difference was instead of having US Army on the side, it had a CSRM patch above the number on the cab, that was the last time I saw it before I filmed this runby.

Nice video! What are they using the locomotive for?

This was taken during the museum's annual Polar Express train, this engine or its sister engine, the 2008, take two flat cars decorated to be the north pole to the end of the line, drop it off, and then return back to the museum as a light move.

this particular track parallels a bike trail, and I usually get to the crossing 5 minutes before the train shows up, this is at a railroad museum.
