Nicely done on the roll-by. Looks as though she got a repaint typical of many railroads circa 1900, as the number is now on the tender (it used to be on the cab prior to the rebuild). The Rogers works built Stevenson-geared 4-6-0's for many roads in the 1890's, the most famous of this period being Illinois Central #382 (used by J. L. Jones and S. Webb on Memphis, TN - Canton, MS mail and passenger runs).
@SierraRailway Thanks! I have a ton more footage, but little time to post right now. Look for more soon. Great to hear I wasn't the only one noticed the whistle!
Can you believe it's been 9 years since Sierra 3 returned to service and just 9 years later 28 returned to service that is just impressive and great
