Louisville and Nashville 4-6-2 #152 is one of the oldest (1905) operating Pacific type steam locomotives in the United States, and is currently run at the Kentucky Railway Museum in New Haven, Kentucky. However back in the late 1980s 152 was a mainline excursion engine in Kentucky. 1988 footage has been re-edited in 2008 and converted to DVD, with exciting steam action including some special runs that highlighted 152 like no other trips during its mainline excursion tours.

In 1993, Nickel Plate Road 2-8-4 #765 was transformed with a few modifications into a C&O 2-8-4 as both Lima-built locomotive types were similar. You'll see a round-trip to Russell, Kentucky from Cincinnati, including a Cab ride at 60 MPH, and enjoy some runs along the New River in West Virginia. More Details Here

As the third tape in our Norfolk Southern Steam collection we have a very unique video showing some of the NS engines on freight trips. Many times the engines would be sent to the next city for a trip, and the excursion coaches would already be there from another trip, and the engines would need a train for braking purposes.

Watch the dramatic action of two big mainline steam engines operating side-by-side as the feature attraction of the 1991 NRHS convention in Huntington, West Virginia.

In addition there are two trips with N&W 1218, and other steam trips. More Details Here

If you enjoy great looking steam action, and hard-working steam sounds, this is the tape for you. In 2002, the Ohio Central Railroad, renowned for its restoration of steam engines, sponsored some photo specials that were the first for former Grand Trunk Railway 4-8-4 #6325. In June, the big 4-8-4 sported the Grand Trunk front Number Plates, and authentic logo on the tender sides, for the first time in over 40 years. This immaculately restored(by the Ohio Central steam crews), has been a hit with steam fans in the United states since its first trips in the fall of 2001(See our "6325 Return to Steam" video for more on 6325).
