I got to run her. She is a work of art inside and out.

@pianomanmaestro The engine is owned and run by the Steam Railroading Institute in Owosso, Michigan. I'm not sure if it runs on any mainlines or just the track owned by the Institute and even if it does run, it doesn't go very far! Right now, however, the engine is undergoing its 15 yr inspection and rebuild, so it won't be running again until at least 2012!!!

It was built in 1941.

Do you guy's know that the PM #1225 is a 2-8-4 Steam Locomotive!

Now this makes me home sick I have fond memories of steam engines back on the 40's. I was told that the parts from the engine in Grand Haven were used to get 1225 up and going.....

Sweet Video. Very rare to see footage with the "Polar Express" emblem. They only
had that the first year after filming the movie.

As an ex CN / S.D and P.C.dept employee I did appreciate that the cars I have worked in as a waiter or steward, did not end in the scrap yard. It remembered me the good time where passenger comfort and service was our main concern.
great job.
this is one of my favorite steamers
when was this video taped?
I didn't think they put "polar express" back on the tender...

This was made two years ago, so things might be different now.
Thanks for the comment.
