- On 8/14, I headed down south of Buffalo originally to capture Buffalo & Pittsburgh's Arcade Turn Job BF-1. With no sign of BF-1 present, I would decide to head down to Arcade, NY to see what the Arcade & Attica Railroad was up to. After hearing the recent news of the completing of the rebuild of their Alco 2-8-0 Steam Locomotive 18, I wanted to see if I could get any shots of it. Arriving at Arcade, I found GE 80 Tonner 113, as it left the A&A shops with a single combine car preparing for the railroad's weekly Wednesday excursion. I would then proceed to get some still shots of 18 which was steaming outside the engine shop. After breaking for lunch, I would then proceed to chase 113 on its Wednesday afternoon excursion from Arcade to Curriers. Arriving back in Arcade, I would fine 18 on one of its several test runs. Taking note of this, I would set up at the Bixby Hill Road crossing for one shot of 18 as it came steaming by light engine!

7:22 I think local residents if they didn't know she was coming back they're saluting nonetheless!
When I was 5 years old,I rode A&A 18.In 2019 when 18 started disassemble we had to ride their GE switcher locomotives.
@@mason.com1030 Nice! I rode behind 18 back in 2017 right before it was taken out of service.
I can really tell they did a LOT of work. Great job to the crew. She looks and sounds fantastic. Also got to love the age old cylinder packing nemesis :D
THE TENDER IS STRAIGHT I'M SO HAPPY
Let me ruin it for you, she has 2 different tender trucks
Fuck
@@TGM_2018_III That's still better than what she had before tho. Railroads often had different/mismatched trucks on tenders back in the day
@@TGM_2018_III its always been that way.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL 😳
Great to see the old girl back in STEAM!
@@RHJ3 It certainly is!
Great chase! Lucky catch with 18! Can’t wait to be there on the 24th.

Glad to see #18 finally outshopped and under steam once again. Great work and looking forward to seeing her up close and personal.
Thanks!
Amazing video! Love that a steam locomotive is alive in NY. 1 question, what days do they do their steam excursions?
@@abramking7803 Thanks! I believe they will run 18 on the 24th. After that the plan is to have it out every weekend of excursions.
