In Part 1, you will see operations at the IRM as the museum is opened up in the early morning. See Metra F7 pushing a line of equipment and interurban 714 arriving the depot. Enjoy!

  • Sweet sounding honker on that F-unit!

  • Good to see the ex-Burlington Northern executive F-units. They were rebuilt and repowered but on a business train trip one day, the new BNSF executive (Krebbs?) became upset when the train had to stop for fuel because of the F-units small fuel tanks. He immedietly ordered that they be "got ridden of". Hence, now the BNSF office car/business train is usually powered by modern six axle units, which of course have large fuel tanks.

  • they got a milwaukee road locomotive? thatscool i!
