On July 4, 2010, I visited the Illinois Railway Museum. While spending the day there, I took a ride on the CB&Q "Nebraska Zephyr." On a couple instances we made it up to 45 mph. Enjoy!

  • How did you manage to get a ride in the power itself??

  • The engineer invited me and a friend in out of the rain, then just said we could stay in for the ride.

  • That seemed like a interesting cab ride, but what was odd, was the clear signals and switches that were wrong, like at the :48 second mark (1st switch on the ride), then there was another bad switch at the 2:09 mark. Was the signals there for show?

  • Spring switches.

  • Very nice classic train. I liked this Cab Ride.

  • Thank you.

  • how cool!

  • Great video!!! This train could really highball it out on the mainline back in the day!!! 70 to 90, Even 100 mph in some instances!! 45 mph seems like a crawling speed for this train!!!

  • Cool cab ride! 

  • Thanks!
