Flagg Coal 75 visits Bellevue 6-25-16

June 25th I ventured down to Bellevue for the Mad River & NKP Railroad Museum's 40th Anniversary. Their usual N&W Caboose was joined by freshly restored NKP 783, and both sported a shining new paint job. Add Flagg Coal 75 to pull the trains and you had an excellent set up! Congratulations to 40 wonderful years of preservation.

For the limited operation they had there, you did very well! It was a fun day in Bellevue watching trains, strolling through the excellent museum exhibits, and riding behind Flag Coal 0-4-0 #75!

I was actually lucky enough to have the privilege of operating the locomotive on Sunday! :)

Epic!

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think this might've been one of the last runs 75 has done within the last few years seeing how 85 and 126 have been used for events the Gramling Family has attended.

@@evanf1293 Flagg Coal 75’s last day was that Sunday (this was filmed on Saturday) and IIRC they really worked it for its last run. It’s so close to Jeddo Coal 85 that is never felt like it’s been missing. I assume we’ll see it back someday sooner rather than later

@@ToledoRails Hopefully, I've known that engine the longest out of the three.

13:55 I stood up from hiding behind the sign that says danger keep off tracks. Right at the end the camera man that interviewed me the day before found me and I went in the cab! :)
