Steamin' Summer - Volume 1
With 12 incredible days of steam action and some of the hottest days in the US Midwest since the 1930’s, we could not think of a better name for our 3 Volume Steamin’ Summer video project.
Little River Railroad #110 / Celebrating 100 Years - in honor of this milestone, Little River Railroad in Coldwater, Michigan threw an impressive three-day party for their 100 year old locomotive. Three visiting tank engines, Viscose Company #6, Flagg Coal #75, and (making its debut) Lehigh Valley Coal #126 were the guests of honor. Little River Railroad #1, also a tank engine, made for a total of five steam engines.
The first two days featured four daily trips between Coldwater and Quincy each pulled by one of the tank engines, and a longer trip to Hillsdale, Michigan pulled by #110. On the third day, all five engines teamed up to power two spectacular Quincy trips.
We cover it all!
Tank Engines to Rock Island - following their visit to Little River Railroad, all three visiting tank engines needed to go to the four-day Rock Island Train Festival. This programs shows how the engines are carefully loaded on special trucks and shipped as heavy loads over the highway.
Multiple HD cameras
Running time approximately 91 minutes
Conveniently organized by chapters
Minimal narration - less talk, more steam action!
