[BUICK925]

those boxcars look way to big

[ghfakar]

@BUICK925 Plate F type box car, that explains the white portion on each end of the car where the roof meets the end. Hi Cube I guess you could call them.

[yourpageitsasheed]

OMG! AS616!! :Oo this is jurassik train park very nice video!!

[conrailforever1999]

[tarmac2001]

How are they able to get replacement parts for it, since Baldwin has been out of business almost 55 years now?

[BUICK925]

[RailfanTube]

Does this railroad do any excursion runs or are they strictly freight?

[atsf7809]

aren't they restoring an 0-6-0 as well?

[cweis127]

Nice Nathan P5

[TheZeke1974]

[synthfreakify]

A good smoker!

[sexyransom]

excessive clag!

[teletubbykiller23]

Damn fine machine! Does she have a huge inline 6 or a V-12? The only other time I saw a 616 was a rusting robbed of parts 616 in 2005 near a abandoned freightyard in Dallas,Texas

[Varinki]

@teletubbykiller23 It's got a De La Vergne 608A 8 cylinder engine.

[shininghappyperson7]

love the horn!

[MrDickensonS]

That looks like the AS-616 that the Trona Railroad used in California!

[DeserTBoB93535]

@MrDickensonS That IS the AS-616 (new to SP) that Trona used.

[SandmanPaul5]

Wow ! A Baldwin !

[darkyoda]

The first of this class still exists, though she's not in running condition. She's outside the CAGY shops in Columbus Mississippi. Typically, they were run Long Hood Front, but eh, you take what you can get.

[VilquinProductions]

Nice oscillating headlight! That Baldwin sure looks sharp! Thanx fur sharin'! 5 thumbs up!

[NATEBVFD181]

we get firecalls all over pureland industrial park

[stareman]

This is one of my favorite locomotive types, the Baldwin AS-616. Most, of course, are long gone from this nation's railroads.

[m3ohwell]

Yes, Pureland park south Jersey

Ed K.

[TexasPacific]

Is she still around?

[WetDirtProductions]

jesus thats an old engoine, but with brand new box cars. lol

[bigboy4016]

The EPA would cry at this locomotive, it's nice!, lol

[acalthu]

They wouldn't really. Considering how much work this engine get's done, it's well worth it.

[railbum]

Go Eddystone!

[Zebrails]

those NO. 4 switches? Pretty sharp curve there. Nice dino-video!

[Superedit]

Are they tolerant of well-behaved fans? I'd love to visit and do some taping of my own...

[Superedit]

Proving once again that some things just get better as the get older! Thanks for posting this.

[photophinish]

I grew up in Trona and remember watching this old girl work there. As I recall she was No. 54 for Trona Railway.

[ArkansasRailfan]

I miss the Trona!

[ERIELACKU34CH]

love the conductor leaping on to the engine. and when i was in flemington there was an old baldwin switcher sitting there a few years ago.

[baldwinman08]

its a cool engine to run. we dont use it too much.

[baldwinman08]

its a fun engine to run. we dont run it too much.

[TrainmasterCurt]

Never seen one of those before, only seen pics of the DRS-4-4's that CP Rail had on Vancouver Island

[RCdash9]

Say. Why would you call a Baldwin Diesel a dinosaur?

[CaptainAmericalives]

Because many wern't made and most now are becomming extinct being sold for scrap to build newer things like a new dash 9.

[o00o00ozy]

Hey that paint scheme is kind of like Reading or Reading and Northern. :)

So they run these on their line often? I wanna see some Baldwins in action.

[hoolg]

Now that's a locomotive with some class. Definatly not one you see every day.

Thanks for posting!

[mafarnz]

A very rare, very neat loco, and a nice horn too. Well done!

[CSX6000]

Now that's a nice P5!!

[Nightm00ds]

wow !!!!! 5*

[1225hubbard]

Nice you dont see to many baldwins running anymore

[dutchtrainmanserie22]

Awesome oldtimer diesel locomotive. Museum railroad locomotive?

[1jackdk]

No, it may be a museum piece, but the SMS runs a fleet of Baldwin locomotives on their railroad in southern New Jersey.
