Whistle Stop Train - CRRM 8-23

The Whistle stop train ran at the Colorado Railroad Museum this weekend. Was quite an event

GB&L #40 was running, was great to see how a steam locomotive that has not operated in many months, can be fired up anytime to run. The back to school train steam up ended up using Diesel power, it was too dry to run 346, and the super heater on 40 was leaking. That was fixed in less then a week, and she sounded wonderful.

Got quite a few pictures, hope everyone likes them













Abraham Lincoln even showed up for the steam up!



And a picture from back in the day
