Pretty cool collection of steamers, I got to see 1225 in 2013 for her Polar Express Run it was her third run after coming back online, she didnt have any jacketing over her boiler yet. I have two clips of her on My Channel, Very early stages of my video posting. I also got to see 765 when she visited Steamtown in Scranton PA; however I did not get to ride, my trip was cancelled hopefully catch her again. The rest i have never seen before and would like to. Thank you for sharing this video.

Dang I missed you on a lot of those shots by like a block.

[@nssteampunk4865]

Is #1225 using a Frisco, Spokane Portland and Seattle, Southern, or Western Maryland Hancock whistle?

[@PereMarquette1223]

It's using Norfolk and Western #611's hancock whistle. I know this for a fact.

[@nssteampunk4865]

Oh yeah that's right I remember reading a newsletter about it using a J whistle.

[@PereMarquette1223]

Well SRI got a hold of #611's whistle. A few years back they used #601's as well.
