    Nice. She’s a beautiful locomotive. Glad she was repaired after that accident. R.I.P. to the fireman and truck driver.
    Great video. 🤘

    My favorite engine there, and the first steam engine I ever rode on.

    Do you plan on taking about and including Wilmington and western 98 in this series because I learned it operated on the Strasburg in the early 60s

      @@commandingofficerkanawha7546 well thank you and I can't wait til its out but for now I'll just wait until the 7002 video comes out so I can get some info on it to go on my top 20 retired steam locomotives list I'm making (I'm not making a CZcams video on it since i only have an account to watch CZcams and I'm making it since I've enjoyed many CZcamsrs who have done them and maybe you should make one one day and I bet 1361 may be or not will be the number 1 spot since you've mentioned serveral times throughout your videos its your favorite steam locomotive

    Music is a bit loud, but besides that, good.

  • @commandingofficerkanawha7546

    This episode was supposed to be on 7002 but info was extremely difficult to find on that engine.
    Also I left this out as I couldn’t confirm this but I believe 90 was apart of the CB&Q steam program
    Also there might be a little earrape at 1:54 and 2:20 as I was a bit to close to the mic

    So 90 has never been retired if so then 844 isn’t the only steam locomotive that had never been retired

    No one get upset at me about this but out of all the locomotives on the Strasburg roster 90 is actually my least favorite and I actually prefer the other operate decapod Frisco 1630 instead of 90 also out of all the locomotives that have ran on the tourist line my personal favorite locomotive owned and operated on the Strasburg railroad is N&W 475 since she’s been one of my favorite locomotives on their roster and from her special appearance in Thomas and the magic railroad and I can’t wait when she Returns to service in the next month in time for 611’s visit
