Steam & Excursion > Flagg Coal 75 - 1472, Time Gone?Date: 10/05/15 12:02 Flagg Coal 75 - 1472, Time Gone? Author: bigjim4life I believe I remember reading somewhere that the Gramling's 0-4-0 Flagg Coal #75's service time is up and is now due for her 1472-day inspection - is that right? I know they have 0-6-0 Lehigh Valley Coal Co. #126 in service and they're getting close to finishing "Mack" (0-4-0 Jeddo Coal #85?) in their new shop building - are they putting off the 1472 on #75 until Mack is done, or taking it out of service for a few years?
Or am I mis-informed on the subject? Any info is greatly appreciated. Jim Lipnitz Morrisville, PA Big Jim Video Productions Date: 10/05/15 13:46 Re: Flagg Coal 75 - 1472, Time Gone? Author: Gumcoach You're not misinformed. 75 ran its last run a few weeks ago before going in for inspection. I'm not sure what the exact plans are but I think they've been making good progress on the new one.
