Five Years of Pere Marquette 1225
Filmed from 2013 and 2017, this production features the Steam Railroading Institutes North Pole Express excursions pulled by the famous Pere Marquette 1225 Berkshire steam locomotive.
Follow the 1225 as it departs Owosso, Michigan and travels through numerous locations on its journey to reach Ashley, Michigan aka the North Pole. See the train as it trudges through some truly treacherous conditions and notice now the train changes over the years.
Special thanks to my wife and daughter who accompanied me on numerous occasions. Your company was a blessing!
THANKS FOR WATCHING!!

A wonderful and a rare opportunity rendered by you to enjoy the visual treats which took many years of hard labour & constant efforts by you. I am in Coimbatore, India but joyfully enjoyed the trip to North Pole in 1225 never dreamt of in my life. Many heartfelt thanks to you sir.
The Marquette is an Awesome machine as if she's living when they sound the horn also the sounds, she makes when moving along
I like the Pere Marquette 1225 😁😁
That whistle echo in the first video was so Beautiful.
the sound of this monster is so beautiful to my ears I cannot explain
In Britain we tend to trust our steamers to make it on their own, and not have a diesel in tow ... but it's not unknown for one to be towed out of trouble by a 47.
The Polar Express.
Nice footage, even the earlier stuff is good! (I can't say that for myself).
amazing train
Just imagine if the Pere Marquette on the mainline or possibly running near my mom is 😀😀😀
I wish they'd let her go mainline again like she did in 1991, which if I'm not wrong was the last time she's been on a mainline excursion.. She deserves the same chances her sister 765 gets and her soon to be restored cousin 2716 will. Hopefully a 2-8-4 triple header soon to come..
