Pere Marquette 1225 Returns with the North Pole Express 11-24-23

Beautiful!

[@JAILRail]

Thanks for watching!

[@EquineMetalhead]

She sure is a beaut. The Polar Express is back and is looking better than ever! Like wow, it looks brand new with the gloss finish even though it’s eighty two years old. The 1225 will always be my favorite train to ever exist on the earth because it made my childhood because of the book and the movie. It makes me so happy to see that it’s still running. It’s such a beautiful train ❤

Great video! Love the C&O caboose.

[@JAILRail]

Thanks Stuart! It was gifted to a volunteer from CSX and after it sat on his property for a while, he decided to bring it to the SRI for restoration. They did a great job!

The Pole Ex is back and better than ever and for fun they should put a Lima Shay 5 chime on her like Sierra 3 and I'm sure we all know where this is going.

@JAILRail You too Casey

[@johnknippenberg-LandmarkYards]

Awesome example of American engineering, how could it not be the perfect engine to have the Polar Express modeled after? I love the smell of coal in the air. 💯

Do you know when 1225 departed Ashley?

[@JAILRail]

I didn’t stay for it, but it would’ve been around 4:30 given their schedule.
