Streamliners at Spencer: 27 Historic Diesels Together

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In May 2014, a gathering of 27 historic streamlined diesels, including EMD E units, F units, Alcos, plus an unrestored Norfolk & Western 611 were brought to the NC Transportation Museum in Spencer, NC. It was an incredible gathering of diesel power, with historical rarities, historic firsts and lasts, and some of the most stylistic diesels in one place.
We cannot thank NCTM and Norfolk Southern enough for their cooperation in making this a reality, as well the many private operations and partners that helped made the event happen.
Locomotives featured include:
-Norfolk & Western 4-8-4 611. The only streamlined steam engine at the event, brought down from Virginia Museum of Transportation. After the event it was rebuilt to service within a year.
-Southern E8A 6900, first Southern E unit. NCTM owned.
-Union Pacific E9A 949, one of three Union Pacific E9s kept in Cheyenne, WY.
-Pennsylvania Railroad E8A 5711 and 5809, owned by Juniata Terminal in Pennsylvania.
-Iowa Pacific E8A 515, painted for Illinois Central colors. Originally C&NW 5029B.
-Canadian National FPA4 6789, owned by Monticello Railway Museum in Monticello, Illinois.
-Atlantic Coast Line E3A 501, only surviving E3 diesel. NCTM owned.
-Delaware, Lackawanna & Western F3A 663, 664 and 664B. Originally Bangor & Aroostook, brought in from Scranton, PA.
-Wabash F7A 1189, brought in from Monticello Railway Museum.
-Baltimore & Ohio F7A 722, originally Bessemer & Lake Erie. Brought in from Potomac Eagle in Romney, WV.
-Soo Line FP7 2500, brought in from Lake Superior Railroad Museum in Duluth, MN.
-Chicago & Northwestern F7A 411, brought in from Illinois Railway Museum in Union, IL.
-Southern FP7 6133, NCTM owned.
-Chicago, Burlington & Quincy E5A 9911A "Silver Pilot". Only surviving E5 unit, owned by IRM.
-New Haven FL9 2019, brought in from Railroad Museum of New England. Youngest streamliner at the event.
-Nickel Plate Road PA 190, one of the only surviving Alco PAs, owned by Doyle McCormick in Portland, OR. Under restoration.
-Wabash E8A 1009, notably the 10,000 EMD produced engine. Not operable, brought in from VMT.
-Reading F7A 284, originally C&NW. Brought in from United Railway Historical Society, not operable.
-Erie E8A 833, only surviving Erie E unit. Brought in from Port Jervis, NY.
-Chesapeake & Ohio F3A 8016A, originally Clinchfield 800. Owned by C&O Historical Society, brought in from Potomac Eagle. Since this video, it has been repainted as Clinchfield 800.
-Pan Am FP9 #1, executive unit. Originally Canadian National 6505.
-Norfolk Southern FP9A 4270 and 4271, Norfolk Southern's executive units, since sold in 2020.
-EMD FT Demonstrator 103. The diesel that kicked off the diesel craze, brought in from Museum of Transportation in St. Louis. Oldest diesel at the event, not operable.

    A magnificent display. It's one thing to see the beautiful paint schemes from the glory days of railroads but to actually see them move under their own power is just plain awesome. I know the video has been around for awhile and I may have even seen it before when it was first uploaded, so I may be repeating myself here. When I clicked on this I figured most of these have to be cosmetic retorations. Watching them work is quite a thrill for a train nerd!!

    Didn't know there were any Alco PAs left. Unforgetable, as a little kid, hearing the whine of those engines out of the station 3 blocks north past my grandma's house (about 75' from the tracks). E units were OK, but that long hood in Santa Fe warbonnet and the sound of them accelerating was just AWESOME. A-B or A-B-A on the way to San Diego. Thanks for this. UNFORGETABLE: Late in the Korean War, about 2AM, I was awoke by the the RARE sound of a loud steam whistles, and looked out the window in awe, as 3 HUGE Santa Fe steam engines roared by, hauling a military train bound for San Diego - endless flat cars loaded with tanks, cannons, and other military vehicles, plus box cars, I assume, that were laden with ammo/small arms. Another helper was cut in 3/4 back in the LONG consist. I was only 5+, but I think they were 2-10-4s. Then, very close behind, came the blair of the horns from 4 ALCO PA/PB units hauling a long troop train of old heavy weight passenger cars. Don't know how I ever got back to sleep.

Someday, I'll get, at least, one of the 3 F-unit A-B-A trainsets painted. Not all of the them. The painted F-unit trainset in the A-B formation is adorned in the famous AT&SF red and silver warbonnet paint scheme and looks absolutely beautiful. I plan to add more HO brass F-units, from Overland Models, to my growing HO scale brass engine and rolling stock collection. 😊 I truly enjoyed this video, and I will watch it again and again and again. 👏😁 I also want to add, your cinematography is excellent! 👍 📽️ 📸

    A bit different than UK diesels. I moved to Australia 48 years ago, we have many similar diesels, emds Goodwin AlCO. Only America could come up with such a magnificent collection of heritage diesels? A feast of colour, some beautiful liveries indeed. I would love to have been there.

    That they're all gorgeous but like most of you said, that E5 is in a class by itself - it's from the age when people wore tuxedo's and gowns for a night out- if a train could be said to be wearing a tuxedo - it's that Zephyr. If you've seen the video's of the inside of the cabs they're a little disappointing. I would design the interior to look as sharp as the exterior.

    The FT Demonstrator was not operable at the event, though it was operable about 30 years ago when EMD celebrated its 50th anniversary. Most of the engines were operable, with the exception of the NKP PA, the Reading F unit, the FT Demonstrators (both), and the Lackawanna 663 and 663B.
