yeah thats true.And every time i hear that whistle it makes me think of what it would be like to see a santa fe 2900 4-8-4 operating again.I guess that day will be coming soon seeing as the restoration of Santa Fe 2926 is getting closer to completion.
The 261 has it's own air-horn. Most modern steam locomotives (SP 4449 is one of them) had air-horns to activate sound-sensitive crossing gates.
boy, i never get tired of hearing that beautiful santa fe 6 chime at 4:14
What an evocative sound that whistle makes!
Man! Seeing those driver so close up is a thing of beauty!
Awesome, I love the sounds of that engine. Lionel needs to make one.
The lift bridge at hastings still carrys the Milwaukee Road logo and how are you Dan?
Yes it does.. I was there with Dan, My video won't go on TH-cam, but will be a DVD preview.

Do you know when it was?
(Awesome that you can film the Milwaukee Road 261 so much times.)
Awesome, i hope that anyone ever makes a Milwaukee Road 261 in trainz!!
Are they just doing a routine overhaul?
Awesome video,5 stars!!!!!
There is an ATSF 2900 available at
train-sim*com.
Did you know the 261 was (i don't know when) in a triple-header with two CHINESE qj locos!
correction, i meant 4:23
for a 5 chime, it's awsome
Well, i'd rather see it down for a few weeks/months rather than in a musuem badly mangled forever
Cant stand the SF 6 chime, bring back the MILW 3 chime!
