Pere Marquette 1225 Polar Express Steam Engine

PM - always a great joy to watch this powerful "steamer"! Many thanks for sharing!

She sure is a beautiful sight

I agree!

One of the most beautiful American Locomotives ever in existence. Great video. Keep up the great work. ^_^

What a beast! Though I do like the UP locomotive with the huge smoke deflectors too, plus the lost Niagras of course. There is s gorgeous blue Czech Skoda operating, nicknamed the Blue Albatross I think.... see if you can search it out on YouTube/ you won't be dissapointed!... a 2-8-4 I think, or maybe 4-8-4.

@SteffanLlwyd Thanks! I will look it up!!! ^_^

Does the 1225 have 2 whistles?! o_O

Yes she does. This is her original wistle. The second is from CNR 5588 Which no longer runs.

Hmmm.....I don't really like that one, it sounds too much like 844's whistle.

Not true! The other higher pitched whiste is the appropriate whistle for a Berkshire locomotive. See NKP 765 which is identical!
