Southern Railway No. 604 (ex. Buffalo Creek and Gauley #4) at Spencer, North Carolina (April, 1988). TEVIN WILLIAMS 2015-03-02 | Built in 1926 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, the venerable 2-8-0 Consolidation spent most of its life as the Number 4 on the coal-hauling Buffalo Creek & Gauley Railroad in West Virginia before becoming a faux Southern engine in the Tarheel State. In April 1988, the video shows "Ole' Slobberface" leading a small passenger train on the NCTM's grounds. Future plans have been brought about to move this locomotive back home to West Virginia for another tourist operation; the Durbin & Greenbrier Valley Railroad. It would be really nice to see this locomotive restored back to working order and plying the rustic rails of its old home state once again.I did not make or own this video.

Various Freights Getting Underway TEVIN WILLIAMS 2015-03-02 | The opening scene finds a trio of SD40T–2’s with an SD50 easing westbound coal into motion during an afternoon rainstorm, the cautious start reflective of the steep descent ahead. Scene Two depicts a BN GP40 making a full-throttle escape from the siding at Frenchtown, Montana, while leading an eastbound no-two-the-same quintet on the MRL. Scene Three also features a GP40, this time an SSW that is also leading a no-two-the-same quintet (elephant fashion) westbound out of the hole at Mecca on the Yuma Sub. Scene Four offers a little GE smoke and burble as a CW40–8/C30–7 team up on an eastbound departing Milford, Utah. Scene Five features the talents of a Cascade Green quartet of SD40–2’s getting out of Kansas City, Missouri with a three-digit string of company hoppers trailing behind. A rare SD40–2B, the result of a wreck rebuild, was the real treat here.I did not make or own this video.
