- In July of 2011, the Little River Railroad of Coldwater, Michigan celebrated the 100th "Birthday" of their 1911 Baldwin 4-6-2 #110. Also there was the Little River's 0-4-0T #1, Flagg Coal #75, Viscose #6, and Lehigh Valley Coal 0-6-0T #126 on her first public appearance since restoration.
In this part we chase the Quintupleheader from Coldwater to Quincy and return. All five locomotives put on a great show and the display was very impressive both visually and audibly.
In a recent visit to the gift shop at the Somkey Mountain State Park, I saw a picture of the 110 on their wall. In speaking with some of the employees there, they had no idea that the 110 was still active! Now they can tell the story about where it is today! I worked on the 110 crew from 1974 to 1980 and I'd do it all over again!
The Head end consist looks quite hilarious. A load of 0-4-0 saddle tank engines, followed by a light Pacific.
It was certainly a unique & unforgettable sight!
There's also an 0-6-0
Which is 126
Wow this is incredible, I could sit here all day watching these 5 engines work together, spectacular shots, what a great show!!🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂
Thanks, this was a great day. Hard to believe it's been over 7 years now.
This video is very fitting. Little River #110 and #1 both operated in the Great Smoky Mountains, out of Townsend TN.

The 110 is the only engine that came from the Little River Railroad in Townsend, Tennessee. The 1 came from Youngstown Steel Co.
For a long time, I neglected following you. Why? Not sure. Thought you were someone else than what I see here. Great production! I am subbing you! I fanned this trip and got you on tape riding the train while you were filming!
Wow! Beautiful! Almost as much smoke as an Alco, too!
This is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen. Four 0-4-0s and the worlds smallest standard garage pacific teaming up. I wish this will happen again.
Well 110 turns 110 in two years, maybe they'll do another party.
SmokyMtnSteam well we can hope that will happen. I have a question. Is it ok if I can use some of this footage in some music videos in the future on my channel? I will give you credit.
As long as I get credited, go ahead.
SmokyMtnSteam thank you
It is 2021 or 2 years so they might do it but since 75 is not running its sister engine 85 would be in the quintuple header
awwwwwwwwwww what cute little tank engines, i want one of those for my birthday LOL
WOW! Great video, excellent quality! 4 saddletanks & a light pacific with whistles screaming! Thanks for sharing!
You should've shown the full train rather than fading after a few cars. The seventh car in the consist was an old World War II troop car. They were used to move troops across the country during the war. Very historic cars. Over all though it was still an awesome video!
...I live less than a hundred miles away. I wish I'd heard about this in advance, I'd have been there to see it!
Espetacular... Show!
Musical whistles to my ears LOL!!!!!!!
@RailfanTube No, my video editor has a glitch that won't let me publish videos longer than 10 mins above a certain image quality, so I went with that over quantity
WOW!!! AMAZING!!!
I've seen the odd quadruple-header before, but not a quintuple-header like this. Interesting.
@dwkcamman611 It was a fantastic sight to behold, thanks for commenting.
That was an impressive video. Great catch. Would love to see and photograph an event like this. Are the 110 and 2 still running? Do they do this yearly? Where is the little river located?
Thank you. This was just a one-time event for 110's 100th birthday but it might be repeated for her 110th Birthday in 2021. All the locomotives in this video except Flagg Coal 75 are still operational at their respective homes. The Little River Railroad runs out of Coldwater, Michigan.
SmokyMtnSteam I saw the 126 and the 6 year. Thank you for the feedback
@@SmokyMtnSteam where is 75
@RailfanTube Sorry, I had to condense the video to under ten minutes, but I'm glad you enjoyed it otherwise.
1 has the best whistle.
I want to see Henry Clay 1 with the project 113 Pennsy 3 chime on this railroad
Do you have plans to see 4014, and 2926, and do you have a video of NPR 765?
I already have videos of 4014 and 765 and I would like to see 2926 someday
My favorite parts are 3:21 3:24 5:12 7:06 8:32
@HaloCE14 Nice machines aren't they?
SmokyMtnSteam THE WHISTLE ARE OUTSTANDING
That whistle horn show was outstanding!
5:20 - 5:51 RIP headphone users.
@SmokyMtnSteam It's weird. TH-cam let's me and a others upload videos over 15 mins but other users it won't. Is that the case with you?
Is it 110's birthday
I would love to ride in the cab of a steam train.
Wait does this mean now 110 is 111????????
Yes
@@SmokyMtnSteam darn it! One year sooner and I could have made a funny joke
Little River Railroad #1, Viscose Company #6, Lehigh Valley Coal Co. #126, Flagg Coal Co. #75, & Little River Railroad 110. With their powers combined they form an Environmentalist's Worst Nightmare.
tem PACIFIC na composição!
110's bell sounds like 765's bell.
Yeah I agree. It's a swinging version of 765's bell because 765's bell never had a swinging bell because it's hammer rung
I think they're cousins
