By the way, why did she stop in that clip, it doesn't take that long to throw a switch and it looks more like they were yelling at the guy on the far left for getting too close to the tracks. Is that true?
That's what I thought, it looked like they were really reaming him out, especially since they had to bring the train to a sudden stop! Got anymore clips of the old girl?
Oh I said reaming, not running, meant they were chewing him out. Sorry, there's another locomotive, is it a diesel or a steamer? So she's in the shed for the winter huh? Nuts, good but nuts, I'd love to see more clips of her running, have you seen her sister, the 1395?
@Jsusfrk20 Unfortunately, the C&M does not have any plans of running #1395. The original intent was to cosmeticaly restore it, but its sat outside for so long it's gonna need a complete redo of the original work.
she is a sister to 1551 right

no i don't she was only out running because 9000 is down with 2 power unit failures.
current status of 1392 is winterised and put to bed in the shed with 9000

Oh wait a minute, sorry I read your message wrong. My bad!

Her sister (1395) is here in Coopersville Michigan and it's so amazing to see what she could look like thanks to the 1392. Keep her running!
