  • @pennyf9 It was my first thought too when i first vistied BGT for the first time in July of 2006. It very much bothered me the entire time. Then i talked to a fellow pr guy who explained this to me when he drove me back to the phyton after close because i left my cell phone on top of a locker and i was alone and my father was flying in that evening to meet me. So they were good enough to drive me back there.

  • @JakeT7 oh really? my opinion it should get timed.

  • @pennyf9 I always thought BGT did that on purpose becasue its Africa and back then thier engines were always out of time. BGW they are perfect.

  • That locomotive is so out of time! needs a valve timing! am i right or is it just me?

  • The people in St. Louis would love to have our other train back and restore it to its original glory. Where is the caboose?

  • where were these engines built???

  • i think the people of saint louis would love to have the number five back, and repaint it the original green.

  • I remember the train ride back in December of 1988 and after the train ride, I rode the Elephant.

  • Lawl, very true, she is cute. And you're right, it's much quieter than I thought it would be, even for a Crown; it's almost like a diesel-hydraulic. And they do have an interesting operation there, it's looks pretty friendly and down to earth; I love railroads that use a lot of second-hand and home-built equipment. Pitty to hear about the injectors though, that's not going to be a cheap fix.

  • I have posted some video of the locomotive on the train. Mostly on board waiting to go and a bit going down the tracks. The locomotive is operated by the Jefferson & Cypress Bayou Railway. I think they blow about 54 gallons of liquid propane on each day.The round trip down the tracks is 5 miles. Tickets are pretty cheap between $8-$10 per person depending on age. One of the old cars at some point in the 1980s or 1990s before these owners was converted to be an enclosed car with A.C.
