I really miss when Amtrak sponsored steam excursions and very disappointed that they discontinued that I honestly wish they would bring it back at some point
Got to see 261 in the summer of 2019, wasn’t running when I visited the friends of 261 since my visit was in August 2019 but it was a great part of 2019 for me other than seeing 4014
Nice to see a distant ALCO cousin to GTW's 6300 series U3b's. Too bad ASR doesn't run GTW 6325 anymore while in pristine condition. (yeah...I got your "hot" main driver bearing issue right here in my crotch). BS!

Pretty good video of Milwaukee Road 261.

I was on the October 4 th 2003 trip. I think at one point the 261 must have hit 60 mph up grade with that long train. I would like to do that again.
What ever happens to loco 239?
