We needed to move 2 new flatcars to our storage track to await restoration. RR&G M-22 was used for this move, making it the first diesel-powered train on the RR&G since the 1950's. We also got to test Glen's "new" Ford Model T that will be converted to rail next year. RedRiverAndGulf.net LongLeaf.LA

Good one, I can relate to working the Bear
Well done video sir! We have one of these up in the Klamath County Logging Museum that’s near Chiloquin, OR (about 30 minutes north of Klamath Falls, OR in south central Oregon off of Hwy 97) yours however, is in excellent shape, just incredible!
I'm from Duluth and we have one displayed at our railroad museum also. Good job
I would highly recommend NOT running Antifreeze in these engines they have an "evaporator not a radiator". And the if you know the difference between the two you will understand, and because antifreeze has a higher boiling point then just straight water it in fact will cause the engine to over heat since it cools it self by boiling water off as steam. Thank You @deepsouthmotorcaradventure5999

Excellent video! My wife and I were married at Clyde Iron in Duluth. (It is now a venue/event center) i really enjoy seeing industrial history like this, thank you for helping preserve it!
Very interesting great video!
Do these use mix fuel like 2 stroke blend
What I gather is these engines are two-stroke, so they will require oil to be mixed with gasoline. They will run in either direction, so forward and reverse, is determined by which direction the engine is running. .
How do you check for spark mine has a starter motor added and I can turn it over with a battery but I see no spark on plug. I did not hear the buz
Is this a Standard Gauge Heisler, or 3’ narrow?
Whoever filmed and edited this definitely has talent.
He’s also very humble. 😁
GREAT video guys👍
that's hype
Hope you do a video on the conversion of the model T
There probably won't be a video of the conversion, but there will be a page on the website. And, of course, there will be lots of video of it running afterwords.
I world love to come see it! I love in North idaho and we did have mills very much like this at one point in time. Some carried the old buildings through to about 20 years ago, but were modernized on the inside. I've got many old old pictures of miles that were setup just as this on still is! I'd say this is probably the only surviving original example of a pre 1960s sawmill
You know there are songs they used to sing when they drove those spikes. Wasn't just one guy driving, it was several at a time and they sang special songs and kept in sync.
Yes, we know. Our Road Foreman knows a few and has promised to teach us some when time permits.
Nice flight!
It would be great to see the restoration of this project completed with a running locomotive in the future when your museum is larger and more complete.
Love the muzeum and keep up the great work
That was a fun weekend. A ton of work went into making it happen and it was all worth it. I’m very much looking forward to the next big event at Long Leaf and the next RR&G Work Session.
Had a lot of fun up there Saturday. Here's hoping I'll be up there again soon.
I gust loved it Saturday. The railway is doing so well.
Skip the music 👎👎👎👎💩💩who wants to hear that crap over a nice old engine?garbage
So glad Louis Saillard found such a good home for the M4.
I like the 1930s/40s styling of M4. Kinda reminds me of the old Renault railcars found in France and Corsica.
Sounds great, can't wait for the festival!
Talk about building character !!!
I crashed 3 airplanes before this trip...Did I forget to tell you..?
Someone needs to donate some tie plates
Is Jason Rose still around?
Love those little critter engines!
Very very good video, thank you for posting this.
So nice to see so many young people involved. Keep up the good work.
Nice little Shunting engine. It looks like it has a Stickshift transmission? Don't see many of them nowadays.
Yes. She’s a stick. However, the stick was missing so a new one will be fabricated.
Video does a great job of telling the story. As always, I am impressed by the precise ability to back up the trailer to the track.
Damn good video!
I can't believe how much has happened after my dad (Wendle) past away
What is a jet
UNIQUE!!
Wow.
That a well built equipment but why isn't it being restored to working condition being the Only one Left
Now you're just playin around!!
That was a fun day! I have enjoyed the few times we have been able to volunteer out there, and we will be back soon!
Yes! Bring it back to life.
really good history. thank you.
Do you have any information on how these things were shipped from Duluth? I would imagine they were too tall to ship fully assembled and placed on a railroad flatcar, and it would be interesting to know how much assembly was required after delivery to the buyer!
That would be too cool if restored!
@@redrivergulfrailroad8989 just watched a video on the McGiffert. All of your pieces are extraordinary even if not operational. Writing you from Minnesota not far from Duluth! Will consider contributions when I'm out of school!
I love to see the rivets in the construction of this lumber car. Predates welding As the primary way to fasten steel!
Come visit us. The car is sitting out on display and can be easily accessed.
