Summer 2013.. Whats going on at the museum? Well 3 passenger cars are leaving on lease to a scenic railroad. 3 Passenger cars are “coming home” from being stored at other locations. Norfolk Southern RR donated a GE manufacture Dash 8 locomotive to the museum. In preparation for the Dash 8 locomotive the Amtrak passenger car was moved around. Since the track in front of the station was clear, we had a chance to move the Whitcomb around. Mark and Ray removed the chocks and I ran the loco up to the driveway. Mark has that video. Here is the GE 25 ton moving the Amtrak coach.
