It remind mine of my fave movie. The Polar Express. I rember my grade 4 class did a play of the movie and I play the famuos lines as being the countor. Here are my lines: Countor: All abourd!!!! Well, are you coming?
My Class Mate: Where?
Countor(ME): Why! The North Pole of course! This is the Polar Express.
And I said these lines when I was nine years old.

P.S. Is that a exViarail car at the back of her?

Not really sure what the cars are. I think I still have some pictures that I can post from that day though.

Well look like viarail to me.

I don't know for sure, I'd have to download the pics from my FTP server, and I really don't have that kind of time right now.

Ok.

Baldwin 2-8-4 SC class locomotive.

~Know it all kid

I thought she was a Berkshire 2-8-4.

You saw that movie?

Yes I have. We have it on DVD.

Me too.

That movie rocks! But they made the train more massive than it really was.. The Flat-top tunnel creeped me out.. It look's like the Devil's FACE!! When the train was on Glacier Gultch, it reminded me as a roller coaster ride.

Never seen the movie. Have seen that train a number of times though. It is pretty massive, as all Berkshires are.

It's all over the Internet! You can it on DVD If you want. The train was built in 1934, restored for the movie, but they didn't 't REALLY use it, but they programmed it to be in it. The train is cool though. Hope for you to see it on Christmas eve night..

I don't think that's accurate. I strongly believe it was operational before the movie was made. Matter of fact, I've seen it when I was a kid in Durand, MI for the train days they had down there.

As a matter of fact, you can read all about the Pere Marquette 1225 housed at the Michigan Steam Railroading Institute at http://michigansteamtrain.com/sri/our-collection/
