Okay, I understand that at least one, and maybe two, of the depicted subjects are static in the photo, but Linn basically caught a THREE-train meet there.......

Get that thing out of there before it contaminates the atmosphere of a steam railroad.

No. Only an HEP generator engine and cab controls.

Kelly, you wouldn't happen to know when the exhibit train will be leaving Strasburg by any chance, would you? I'm trying to take a trip out to watch in leave for its home rails.

Will it be pushed back with the Amtrak P42 or pushed /pulled by a Strasburg or other engine on one end?

Hi Mitch. It will be pulled to Leaman Place with the P40/F40 lashup. There, another Amtrak locomotive will tie on the hind end and pull it to 30th Street.

Just returned today from visiting Strasburg on Tuesday the 21st. My girlfriend and I had a great time. Just wanted to say what a class organization you guys run and to thank you for your hard work, the effort shows.
