I love the old Chessie logo. In the 70s my grandmother lived one house away from 4 lanes of track that went behind a Chrysler plant. Chessie and Conrail were common sights and Chessie was my favorite. I played on those tracks and waved at the engines as they rolled by. Those are good memories.

Interesting. There seems to be a lot of footage on 614’s safety trains but none when it did the coal trains

Steam engines are the only man made things that are alive

[@Cessna-er4je]

There's plenty of footage for 614's passenger career to go around, but not as much as when she tested for the ACE 3000 project. Shame really cause she did a great job at it. Although I believe 2101 probably should've been painted in B&O colors instead, she still put on quite the show!

Check out 2101

[@Slipperyisimproving]

Reading 2101 was badly damaged in a roundhouse fire in Kentucky in 1979. The cause of the fire is unclear. The Reading 2101 is back in it's AFT paint job and on static display at B&ORM after the Kentucky Roundhouse Fire Incident.

[@merbslucky]

I wonder where these engines are now.

[@T128Productions]

The 2101 is at the B&O museum in its American Freedom Train paint scheme, and the 614 is at the C&O Heritage Museum in Clifton Forge, VA.

Technically, 614's trains were after Cheesie became CSX, but the railroad wasn't officially merged out of existence until 1987 (the B&O's 160th anniversary).
