Pretty good, but here are a few errors,
1. you said that the RRMPA (RRMPA means Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania by the way.) got the locomotive, but was shortly AFTER leased to the SRC. this is false, as stated in the SRC's own roster. (Yes, 1223 is still on the roster) "Ex PRR; on loan from PRR 1960-1968, PC 1968-1979, PHMC 1979-1989; retired account boiler repairs; 1strun, psgr helper, 15 Aug. 1965, J.H. Leath, Engineer" this states that the locomotive (1223) was leased for Eight Years from the Pennsylvania Railroad, Eleven Years from the Penn Central, and THEN from the museum.
2.I am not sure if you or i are correct on this, as i have heard different counts on what has happened, but I will list a few Others.
2a. The SRC was willing to pay for repairs, but only if the RRMPA granted a lifetime lease on the Locomotives (second loco being 7002)
2b. The SRC was willing to pay for part of the repairs, but would only carry through with them if the RRMPA would pay for part of it.
This comment was not meant necessarily to criticize, but more to share the fact as I know them with going to the Strasburg Railroad for Years. If i notice anything else, the comment will be edited to show what else i have noticed.
Corey Page ok, well thank you for the correction as once again, info was hard to find for this engine
love it, I never knew 1223 was on a movie title and it's a shame that she is out of service, mabye, one day the RR Museum of Penn. or the Strasburg Railroad will rebuild her fire box, but at the same, I dout it and it might be to expinsive to do so
cld1522 yeah. 1223 is a great engine and it is a shame that she’ll most likely never run again
indeed
Wow. It’s amazing how she was saved from scrap. It’s sad that she’s on static display. I’m not a massive fan of locomotives on static display, but I rather have that then have that steam loco scrapped.
Skylite Junction yeah, she is a great engine
Glad your keeping this series up
Kaiju Liam thanks! I appreciate hearing that
I love this! Thank you for making such an incredible episode about this amazing locomotive! I'm sure you found my playlist on 1223 to be useful lol
Harry Warren thanks! I appreciate hearing that!
Hi harry Warren
The Engines that pulled the Circus World Museum Train are 4501 1385 and 5629
N&W Guy 475 N&W challenger 433 already knew that
Wow! This is Awsome! Love this so much! Thanks! Great Job!
Tristan Rail - Productions same channel thanks! I appreciate it
@@commandingofficerkanawha7546 NP!
My favorite 4-4-0 and let her live on
Nickel_plate_road_man 765 yes, s he is the best 4-4-0
At this point I blame the big fire box ban and the people who put that down because if Penn Central is thinking to break off with CSX it would be somewhat unlikely for them to make that act due to that big fire box band which is actually ironic because Almost all of the Pensi,s steam engines have the big fire box.
You never know if she might return they might actually try to rebuild the firebox and try to keep the original shape as possible
To be honest I think it was good the Strasburg Railroad pulled 1223 and 7002 after that ultra sound test because if they never did that test to discover their boilers weren't safe let's just say that either one of them would of exploded, cause some deaths and if it did happen it would of probably of caused the tourist line to shut down and possibly be just as worst as what happened at the Gettysburg railroad with Canadian Pacific 1278 in 1995
EvanF1293 yeah, if Strasburg didn’t do that who knows what would happen
@@commandingofficerkanawha7546 yep good thing they did it when they did
This was a great video to learn about the history of 1223 and learn that it even appeared in a movie, but it’s a shame that this beautiful 4-4-0 might never ever run again because of the firebox design and also what was bad about the design of the firebox since both her and 7002 both had the same design and just a thought but if it actually did run again (possibly not) with the same firebox then would it cause something maybe bad to happen? Just a thought but just wondering
Evan's Megazord reviews thank you very much! And indeed, it is a shame that she’ll never run again due to her firebox design

I think the PRR 1223 I well Restore The locomotive and get it running again with the locomotives at The Railroad museum of Pennsylvania and don’t worry I’ll fix PRR 1223 firebox and so it run excursions In Trenton Michigan with some of those PRR locomotives and some of those Rolling stock that I will buy PRR 1223 and some of those PRR locomotives and buying Some rolling stock it’s going to cost expensive but I don’t care I am going to restore the locomotives and that museum and 1223 and some rolling stocks and so 1223 New home is in Michigan and I ran excursions with the locomotive in Michigan and I will be the driver of the locomotive so I’m going to restart locomotives and 1223 and some rolling stocks at the Pennsylvania railroad museum when I go on Halloween vacation on Holiday this weekend ok 👍
You are a very interesting creature
Yes I’m a engineer and I’ll get some Pennsylvania railroad locomotives and 1223 and some rolling stacks And I will buy in Pennsylvania at the railroad museum of Pennsylvania And Strausburg railroad locomotives in the silence rotting away that I will restore those locomotives and get them running on steam again and I well get them running again down the tracks with those Rolling stocks and I am a engineer and I’ll do that on November ok 😋😉🚂🚃🔧🛠💵🤝🚂🛤
Stephen Trainboy 12 4449 You understand the amount of paperwork and money and man power and time and effort you’d have to put in if you were going to do this?
Yes I will do it
