In October 1987, the restored Pennsylvania Railroad Class K4s 4-6-2 Pacific-type locomotive 1361 made a series of crew-training runs on the Nittany & Bald Eagle Railroad. Mark I Video is proud to offer exclusive passenger coverage of this exciting event.
Opening with a capsule history of the Pennsy K4s and the restoration of the 1361, this fine program presents dramatic highlights of these special trips, which were not announced to the general public.
Included are beautifully-photographed trackside sequences staged especially for this presentation, pacing runs with no motorcade, and the first commercially-available cab ride footage showing this famous locomotive from the engineer's point of view. A great portrait of the famous K4 in action!
