Steam & Excursion > Polar ExpressDate: 01/17/12 02:32 Polar Express Author: xg093 What locomotive was used in the making of the movie? I can't remember
Date: 01/17/12 03:14 Re: Polar Express Author: olddude41 PM 1225.
Date: 01/17/12 09:14 Re: Polar Express Author: switchlock Was that intentional or just a happy coincidence (1225)?
Date: 01/17/12 10:07 Re: Polar Express Author: tomkat Does anyone know why the engine in the movie hasn't got the number 1225? As I remember, it had no number at all.
Date: 01/17/12 10:33 Re: Polar Express Author: Duleigh Its possible that the number was omitted because it appears that there was no locomotive number in the original illustrations of the children's book "The Polar Express", however if you notice all the tickets are numbered 1225

Date: 01/18/12 11:09 Re: Polar Express Author: switchlock I was wondering more about the engine number as opposed to make and model. I thought I saw the loco numbered 1225 in the movie but I'd have to see it again to be sure.
