reminds me of the Martinsville, Indiana firework show I went to a few years ago. They haven't been as good since

Sad that 765 doesn’t visit the CVSR anymore, but at least she now has a perfect home on the Indiana Northeastern

You never know, maybe again some day. The erosion along the Cuyahoga River killed it the last couple years.

What is that bar hanging down that the engineer moves back and forth? That’s not the throttle or is that what they call the Johnson bar? What does it do?

@grantgeist495 6 ай бұрын

I’m confused by your question? The bar “hanging down” IS the Throttle. Pulling it towards the Engineer opens it & pushing it forward closes it. The handle that is being moved forward & reverse, close to the cab window is the Power Reverse operating control … it’s similar to a Johnson Bar - controls the locomotive Cut-Off. the handle/lever that gets pulled down from the cab roof is the whistle handle.

Does CVSR no longer go to Canton? How long are the 765 rides at CVSR usually? What is Rich Melvin doing since he retired from the engineer’s seat? I rode behind 765 twice in PA during the NS 21st Century Steam excursions. Horseshoe Curve and Lehigh Gorge. It’s a shame that NS no longer wants anything to do with excursions again but they will still let 765 and 611 use their tracks to get to other railroads where they can operate excursions for the public and without PTC.

Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad hasn’t run to Canton in many years. That trackage is owned by the Port Authority and has very limited freight operations under agreement with W&LE/Akron-Barbeton Belt. When CVSR ran Steam In The Valley trips, they were approx. 2-12/hour trips. Rich Melvin is enjoying retirement with grandkids.

Is the only place to ride behind 765 now is beyond Cedar Point at a town called Edon, OH and in Indiana and Michigan? I'm glad I rode behind it twice in PA in 2013 and 2015. Does it no longer go to CVSR? I live west of Allentown, PA and the 2015 excursion came to near Bethlehem, PA and went through Allentown to Pittston and back.

11:34 I love seeing Pere Marquette 1225 running at that speed! Sick and tired of seeing 1225 running so slow in tourist railroad from Owosso to Alma currently, Metra did welcome 765 on their rails to run 60 to 70 mph. I wish Metra should welcome 1225 on their rails, so we can see 1225 run in that speed like in that scene, like what the real Polar Express steam engine can do in the movie!

0:55 what whistle was that? It sounds like a lunkenheimer 3 chime

@grantgeist495 9 ай бұрын

During Huntington ‘91, NKP 765 wore it’s normal whistle, a Nathan 6-chime from NKP 2-8-4 #700. The guest whistle was a PRR T1 whistle, someday to be the whistle on the T1 Trust’s #5550. While I can not confirm, I believe 1225’s whistle might have been from a C&O Hudson or maybe it’s original Pere Marquette whistle?

I never realized that there would be an Epilogue to Greg Scholl's amazing “Steam in Huntington” video...but here it is. MAN!! The behind the scene's and narrative are equally amazing as well. (Too bad the quality of the video wasn't as “up-to-par”as that of Greg's, but who cares...Greg had the best-of-the-best equipment that money could buy. Oh, and it's 1991 right? Even before GO PRO). A multitude of thanks go to Grant Geist for this sharing this video with us “wanna-be's”. God bless you sir and it'd be great to see you back in the cab of 6325 again.

@grantgeist495 Жыл бұрын

Sorry about the quality on the KZbin share, it’s a “screen shot” off my television. I’ve been out of the video business for over thirty years and have no way to transfer this stuff. There’s a company called “Yard Goat Images” that has released all the Berkshire stuff on DVD and BluRay, if you want to see this stuff at a higher level, I suggest you contact them. We had expensive equipment back then too and if you want to see that quality, Yard Goat is the way to go! As far as 6325, as much as I’d like to, that’ll never happen. 765 is just fine for now.
