I been thinking of 587 lately. Been kinda missin hearing her whistle and lighthearted exhaust. So I got to this video. Very nice stuff between 2:10 and 3:30. Reminded me alot of chasing 2716 back in the day. Seeing 765 is always a treat too Or any of the NKP Berks. Aside from Dreyfuss's contributions, AMC's Berkshire design has got to be the sexiest locomotive build ever! I can imagine how many times this movement played out 70 years ago, albeit freight not passenger, entering and leaving the famous Calumet yards. If there was ever a reason to travel back in time it would be to witness speedy fast Berkshires wisp over night freight trains across the country side. Or see K4 Pacifics battle against steadfast Hudsons of the NYC from Chitown to the Big Apple. For now your video fills the void. Thanks for sharing it with us! Great stuff!

I think it would be awesome in the future if 1551 can run from the Age of Steam Roundhouse in Sugarcreek, Ohio to anywhere else like in Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Upstate New York, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Missouri, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine.

Hopefully both 4070 and 587 would be expected to be under steam again together in 2018.

brian falzon I wouldn’t hold my breath. 587 is currently in great danger in Hamilton county and I’ve already sent a letter to the judge who ruled out something very stupid. And 4070’s owners were evicted from the roundhouse. While I to hope for that day to come, This year won’t see any of them under power.

TheBlueComet832 rest assured, 587 is indeed safe now. Hopefully, she'll be running again in the near future. But for now, we'll have to wait and see.

What really gets me is the fact that they didn't even bother to take the 611's tool car outta the consist for whatever reason.
@ethanmorel2746
@ethanmorel2746 3 жыл бұрын
It’s because they use the tool car on another day of the excursion as they were operating the 587. Both of the locomotives are being operated by NS Steam crews for this last segment of the trip after the 611 arrived from the east.

@@ethanmorel2746 That's not really a satisfactory answer. The 587's own tool car was there in the consist in this video, sandwiched between the 765's tool car and the 611's tool car, so if the 587's tool car was present, why have the 611's in the first place, and then remove the 587's tool car for another run?

If I remember correctly from the Pentrex video, didn't 765 suffer some sort of problem that left 587 to do all of the work?

I thought that I heard somewhere that the locomotive will be operational again but not likely to return to mainline excursion service though I honestly hope that you are right.

Because the consist would be weird if 765 goes to the front instead i think.

In the steam era, railroads usually had the locomotive with the lowest tractive effort (pulling power) as the leading locomotive, and the locomotive with highest tractive effort was coupled directly to the train. The 587, an USRA Light Mikado, develops 54,724 lbs of tractive effort, and the 765, an NKP S-2 Berkshire, develops 64,135 lbs of tractive effort. Thus, according to railroad tradition, the 587 leads the train. Of course, this rule isn't always followed in the preservation era. The N&W 611 (80,000 lbs tractive effort) has lead both the 587 and the 765 in the past. Also, Southern 4501 sometimes leads Southern 630 at TVRM.

That’s very true. Some locomotives with a large but small amount of tractive effort are always in the lead when their on duty.
