Lackawanna F3's 664/663: Excursion on the Route of the Phoebe Snow

[@starguard4122]

It good to see these guys are actually running these trains instead of letting them sit on some display stand to rust away

The horns on the F3's brought back memoeies. Magnificent. However, on the last video, CP freight chime horns gave me the chills! I haven't heard horns like that since I was a kid, and I'm 67.

I liked that last horn too. Used to hear those at night.

My Great Grand father was a engineer for the "Phoebe Snow" Ernest August Nagel born 1895 served in WW1 (1914-1918) as a train engineer in the transportation corps in france and then after the war he lived in Meadville PA and worked for the Erie RR and according to my grandfather during WW2 two soldiers came to their house and told him the army needed him to Europe to operate the trains then came back and worked for the Erie Rail Road for 40 Years until he retired in 1960 and used his Erie Railroad pass to make frequent visits on the lackawanna to visit his family in New Jersey until he passed in 1987 an 92 .

Beautiful F-units! What happened to the "B" unit? I've seen the "B" unit in a lash-up with 663 and 664 in another youtube video. I hope it hasn't been scrapped! 😢

...apparently the 'newer' F3's were capable of 103 MPH...wow...beautiful locomotives...

[@seiner0ne]

i love f3's because there pretty much the same as B class loco's here in australia except B class loco's are double ended and are a bit smaller

[@nomon95]
