[imagreatbigman]

is the 6325 still running?

[Strasburg1991]

@imagreatbigman nah, she has some running gear problems but hopefully after the roundhouse is completed, work will continue

what kind of whistle does it have? it sounds different.

[Jsusfrk20]

@nascarfan8833 sounds sort of like a Pennsy 3 chimer but again with the wind it's hard to tell.

[nascarfan8833]

@Jsusfrk20 i meant that when it was in the distance, it sounds like it has a higher pitch/whine to it.

@Jsusfrk20 That whistle sounds nothing like a Pennsy 3 chime...you can definitely hear more than 3 notes. If my ear serves me right, it sounds like it's got a 6 chime on her, although what type I have no idea.

@nascarfan8833 during this run she was wearing her original grand trunk 6 chime step top. often known to railroads as the famous Nathan 6 chime steptop. the king of all steam locomotive whistles. now these days she wears a pennsy 3 chime

@Engineer5344 nice.

6325 Is one of my favorite engines . I hope the Ohio Central can aquire 6325"s sister locomotive 6323 so the two sisters can doublehead on freight and passenger traina from sugarcreek to columbus.
