Agreed. Anyways, a side question. I heard that the Kettle Moraine Railroad closed down and sent Steamers #3 and #9 up to Green Bay. I've seen #3 efore she went to another railroad for temperary service, but I haven't seen #9. Does anyone know their fates?

yes they did and I believe the #9 is still there but the 2-6-2 locomotive#16 they had was sold to a individual in illinois and the 4-6-0 of the WO&V is in Black river,WI!

I think strasburg should get togrither with steam to bring 31 and 89 to steamtown to tirple head with 3254.

 

[dpfan1]

I don't know about that!

yea with strasburg 31 and 89 doublehead with steamtown 3254 it would make a cn tripleheader.

 

[dpfan1]

Uhhhhhhh... you mind saying what's wrong with the 425?

the reading and northern should send the 425 to strasburg for a couple of days pulling the strasburg two passenger trains during the summer. with 425 on the half hour train and 90 on the hourly steam.

THE 261 should be back in steam.

 

[dpfan1]

you know 261 run beside a ledgend of steam the BLUE MOUNTAIN AND READING 425 at steamtown grand opening.

 

[zues]

261 isnt going anywhere. it is hopfully staying in the midwest where she belongs. It should not go to steam town or strasburg. So quit thinking that.

 

[dpfan1]
