    I rode this train as a kid back in 1993. Now I'm a proud volunteer on this railroad looking to get on the train crew and I would love to see the return of 786. Your donations will go towards the funds of the reassembly. She will run again.

    I had this as one of my first train videos as a kid, so 786 has a special place with me because of this video.

    This video is the primary reason I know of this steam engine. I watched this a million times as a kid. X3

    I grew up with this VHS tape as a kid, so funny to see this again 20+ years later! Thanks for sharing 🔥

    I remember this long forgotten VHS tape from childhood along w/ Rudy Roo: Trains Lots of Trains. I couldn't remember the titles of them back then sadly so it makes them even more obscure. Seeing them both now gave me the realization from the footage I vaguely saw and remembered.
    Also, some Amtrak parts were also included on There Goes a Train (as well as being used for the Shining Time Station Family Specials sponsors on PBS).

    Great shot and footage of 786, and I'll really want to put my hands and work on 786 to put back in operation, right now I'm back in Austin and I'm happy welling back to work on the ASTA, me and Noah and the others are still working on 442, and it's coming along very well, after that when I came back in December I hopefully to work on 786 because I love steam locomotives and I'll love to spend time with the locomotive.

    Oh wow, that's what I call a flashback. I remember borrowing this film from my local public library when I was a kid. I recognize some of the old scenes too; 786, of course, but also the original Zilker Zephyr.

    When is the expected time (like the date, month, and year) for #786 to run again?

    • @austinsteamtrainassociation

      However long it will take to return 786 to service will be entirely dependent on the funding to build a shop and then reassemble the locomotive. Here's a video going into more details of the status and next steps of the 786 restoration. - th-cam.com/video/Q9C6lInwhO8/w-d-xo.html
