Western Railroad Discussion > Dash 8 Shoving PlatformDate: 10/01/23 15:35 Dash 8 Shoving Platform Author: erielackawanna Back on September 09, 2023, moments after the sun rose high enough to light the entire scene, an Amtrak special move of ATSF 4-8-4 3751 utilizes a Dash 8 as a shoving platform (at least that's what it looked like, the steamer was working and the diesel going along for the ride). The 3751 would be displayed at the LAUS Train Festival. Next to the two older timers on the main are Metrolink retired F59 variations in Keller Yard.
