Thank you for uploading this, I videoed her in 2000 and 2001 in Mount Dora but never saw her in Parrish.

It’s crazy to think that it’s been almost 30 years since this happened and that of all the equipment shown here only the then Newly acquired 1835 the 12070 the. Used as the ticket caboose in the siding in this video and the N&W caboose on the rear of the train are still i service the rest of the cars were either sold off or retired and stored in the dead line in Willow

Grayson, did you knee that I bought and donated Mopac caboose 12070 to the museum? It was the first car they owned. I also got the two RS3's traded by Amtrak and I secured the donation of the Army GP7's. -JH

@@herronrailvideo1169 yes I did. actually you and woody were a big part of that museums success Paul Chapman in many ways too. I used to know everyone else ( the founding 7 members names) off the top of my head that broke off of the Tampa NRHS to from the FGCR&Museum You and I actually go pretty far back even though we only got to see each other briefly the last time you came down to see the place before I left to work for Charlie Poling. I have a deep rooted soft spot for FRRM but after 20 years and being pushed out by the new management without so much as a recognition or appreciation of service was hard. I miss the old days when you and Ken Clark and McQuiggs were more involved. It’s changed a lot in someways for the better in some ways it’s lost a lot of it’s potential to do things such as this not having the full line and not caring that they don’t have it is a problem in my opinion. One that will be a permanent problem for them In the future. If they don’t act soon. I hope your doing well Mr. Herron

I really like the B&O wagontop caboose!

Regrettably, the B&O caboose is no longer in service but it does exist at the museum's shop area at Willow, FL.

It's worth noting that #4 is owned by the Reader Railroad, not the D&R. The Reader Railroad leased #4 to the D&R the year before for an excursion, hence the D&R lettering.

@herronrailvideo1169 7 ай бұрын

That's true. The D&R sub-leased no. 4 to the Fla RR Museum for the runs there.

What whistle is that 2:59

@herronrailvideo1169 6 ай бұрын

It is an Illinois Central 3 chime, standard whistle for ICRR road locomotives. Those whistles were made at Paducah Shops and are similar to Hancock 3 chime whistles.

@@herronrailvideo1169They sound very similar to the southern railway PS4 three chimes for some reason
