Sierra Railway #3 runs special to Sonora first time in 20 years!

[@nerfreak01]

She deserves to be able to run that line period! Start a commuter service. Railtown would get more funds for restoration and upkeep.

Hey look that's the polar express

[@Kristinapedia]

This train was in Little House On The Prairie in "The Runaway Caboose".

[@CSXT8482]

Whenever I see this train, I think Polar Express.

[@aznmozez2214]

That whistle is the one used for the train in The Polar Express movie did u know?! But all the other sound effects like the hissing and chugging are from the steam Pere Marquette 1225 locomotive! The locomotive design used for the Polar Express

[@jemotorsports00e]

Agreed

[@WoodJack99]

It's a 5-chime. Not sure of the make. Some say Lima, some say Southern, Northern, etc.

[@WoodJack99]

The PE whistle was this whistle's pre-recorded audio.

[@jonathanhartfield533]

The crossing was disabled and was flagged for traffic, as the train was sitting in its active zone once parked in Sonora.

[@lostonessoul8435]

What company made the whistle for #3? Please someone tell me. Because I've heard three whistle that sound like it made by three different companies: Nathan standard, Lima and great northern all of them five chimes.

[@WoodJack99]
