This was taken back when the light setup looked alot nicer then how it;s currently setup. I thought it looked better how the headlight was on top rather then in the middle like it currently is. I don't like how the bell is right in front.. I can't get used to it.
yep, old gm&n 425, gm&o 580, used to spend alota time at jackson tn's iselin shop in the mid 1940's, old gm&o employee i know used to work on her all the time, , he says it once had a brass souhtern valve gear

Great video, It's a shame Len didn't get out. I'm sure he would had more area's on video then all you guy's. It shows with all the past trips he chased and rode. You sure learn from the master of videoing.

Have you railfan yet, with Pennsylvania best Railfan {Len}? If you haven't you should he sure knows his stuff. Just take alook at his video's He's been every where. I still think your video is good though.
Clarkson University has a steam whistle in their hockey arena and they blow it to begin and end periods and whenever a goal is scored. So I now associate that nice train whistle with hockey!
The whistle is not the same as the one that has been on the 142. The one that was on it for the photo freight belongs to a RBMN employee. The whistle that was on the 425 on Saturday belongs to Andy.
She's down again for mantinence :(

Why did they even make all those changes?

You forgot she was on the W&W for quite a while. Never used due to paperwork issues, but was steamed at least once.
Now both VFSRR engines are in steam.

Everyone loves the 425! She will probably be used for the scenic trains instead of the diesels.
