AND I ALSO "REALLY" LOVE THE POLAR EXPRESS CARTOON MOVIE FILM THE MOST WHEN I WAS A "KID" ALL THOSE MANY YEARS AGO. OH, THE NOSTALGIA-CHILDHOOD-MEMORIES.
My God! What a Beautiful! Living! Breathing Lady! What a Voice!! I want to Cry. She Brings Out such Emotions. I Hope to Have The Honor of Meeting her someday.
Oh shoot! If I knew you were there I would’ve properly introduced myself, I’m sure we’ll run into each other again for one of the berks! Thanks for watching!
Excellent footage! It's good to see her back in steam. You can tell that they did some serious work on her. I've never heard her exhaust sound so smooth. It's always been slightly off-beat.
Magnificent catches of the steam locomotive coming by and pass, i like it 5 stars, keep up the great work, my friend, i subbed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
I have an American Flyer "S" gauge model of the Berkshire type locomotive with Polar Express sound and such. It pulls the "stock" Polar Express consist with added Bagage & Dining cars, around and through our Christmas Village each December and January. I also have the American Flyer model with the 1225 Pere Marquette markings . Being somewhat newer and not Polar Express themed, it has traditional radio talk and features a remote control coupler that the Polar Express model doesn't have. I have a set of nice old heavyweight cars for the 1225 to pull. It looks quite nice. They are two of my favorite American Flyer locomotives.
Can anybody tell me what "prep" work goes into putting her up for the night (between runs), and then again long-term? It might make a cool short video.
While SRI has a supply of single beam bulbs they’re becoming harder to find and they want to extend that supply as much as possible so the dual beam headlamp will be easier to use plus it provides better illumination when they’re running at night like they do for the North Pole Express
I wish that the movie had either maintained the original whistle sound or that they swapped out the whistle for the one the movie used. It just feels wrong. I don’t associate that whistle with The Polar Express
They did it to the Marquette too? Why? WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE DUAL HEADLAMP, WHY CAN'T YA USE ONE AND CALL IT GOOD?! They did it to the 4014, and with this emgine they may as well have given her a damn mars light just like 765.
the twin headlamp is for safety purposes and also for better viewing at night, thats why most excursion engines have the dual beam headlights. It also conserves use on single beam headlights.
BEST "NEW" TH-cam VIDEO IN THE UNIVERSE
This is Exactly Why I Love Trains

One of my favorites and now starting to get into steam engines because of Perry Marquette

Wonderful to see 1225 back in such good shape!! Fantastic job to the SRI crew, and a beautifully produced video… thanks very much for sharing!! 🔥
Thank you so much! Was an honor to have been here to see it again
Excellent footage! It's good to see her back in steam. You can tell that they did some serious work on her. I've never heard her exhaust sound so smooth. It's always been slightly off-beat.
Thank you! Not only that, but it was much louder since 2021
❤❤❤
Fantastic video as always man! I can’t wait till I get to chase it next weekend. 1225 sounds great after the work.
Thanks Christian!!! It sounds like thirty times louder than last time
Pere Marquette 1225 (Built by Lima Locomotive Works in 1941) the real Polar Express steam locomotive is back in operation again.
The real Polar Express has returned! Love it
Awesome behind the scenes action!
Thanks man! Happy you liked it!
Gotta buy a model of this. A classic design!
Magnificent!
Magnificent catches of the steam locomotive coming by and pass, i like it 5 stars, keep up the great work, my friend, i subbed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
Thank you so much for watching!!
@@whistle.productions my pleasure, mate.
@@whistle.productions enjoy my videos of the Portuguese trains.
PM #1225 has returned. She's back under her own power and steam after 2 years of being down for mechanical repair work. She's now really nice.
WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER FOR VERY VERY EXQUISITE ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
one of my favorite steam locomotives 🤍
Now this polar express supposed to look like not bad ❤🎉
The Polar Express is back on the rails!

I Agree with the 999,999 TH-cam-Likers On TH-cam, AMERICAN STEAM LOCOMOTIVES ARE THE BEST !
Amazing video! I absolutely loved it! Where is the location for the shot at 8:17?
Thank you! If I remember correctly, it was E Maple Rapids Rd
SHE HAS AWOKEN FOR CHRISTMAS
WOW I'm going to paint it
The Polar Express.
Can anybody tell me what "prep" work goes into putting her up for the night (between runs), and then again long-term? It might make a cool short video.
The real life Polar Express is finally back!
With double 1225 signs on top and double lights
Where’s 9:00 at?
the curve in elsie
@@whistle.productions is there anything around it to judge off of like a restaurant or something?
Why no one recorded the train returning to Owosso🙄
I think cause the diesel leads
PM 1225 is back! But the only problem is that now she has a dual beam headlamp. What was wrong with a single beam headlamp?
Incandescent Bulbs are not allowed by FRA requirement as they apparently contribute to global warming
While SRI has a supply of single beam bulbs they’re becoming harder to find and they want to extend that supply as much as possible so the dual beam headlamp will be easier to use plus it provides better illumination when they’re running at night like they do for the North Pole Express
Does it still pull out of the work shop at 5am?
Around 7 is when they start moving out
@@whistle.productionsAwesome Thanks! earlier than 7 or just around?
@@TrainTableRailroad Probably be there earlier than 7 just to be on the safe side
Also where is 9:00 at?
@@whistle.productions awesome thanks!
Do you know when 1225 departed ashley?
How does it make the chugging sound even tho it is completely still
strong air pump
Hi how can or where can find the 1225 in Ohio or whats state of usa
Am form mexico
It’s in Owosso, Michigan. Check the Steam Railroading Institute website to see the dates of when they’re operating
I could be wrong but she doesn’t appear to be going very fast im guessing this is because its her first run after repairs?
It's because of the last time it ran, they nearly hit some idiot at Carland Elevator. It ripped her jacket off.
Ahh ok
I wish that the movie had either maintained the original whistle sound or that they swapped out the whistle for the one the movie used. It just feels wrong. I don’t associate that whistle with The Polar Express
Reunite the twin Berkshire locomotives 765 and 1225
As well as #CO2716!
*Polar Express
They did it to the Marquette too? Why? WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE DUAL HEADLAMP, WHY CAN'T YA USE ONE AND CALL IT GOOD?! They did it to the 4014, and with this emgine they may as well have given her a damn mars light just like 765.
they also did it on ussc 148
the twin headlamp is for safety purposes and also for better viewing at night, thats why most excursion engines have the dual beam headlights. It also conserves use on single beam headlights.
@@railfanxjofficial AAAAHHHH. I didn't know that, I thought they did it just because it looked cool.
