Someone has to fix that bell's air ringer though...lol. Has the bell stuck upside down more than should be in the last shots? Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 11/06/12 15:31 by nhiwwrr.

her slipping. She's a sweet-lookin' locomotive! Date: 11/06/12 20:15 Re: T&P #316 Debut (Texas State Railroad) Author: elueck The bell has no air ringer, only Robert, the fireman. For some reason the bell likes to stick, bottom up.

I'm glad to see the Texas State Railroad painting a locomotive for it's original railroad. Is this the plan for future restorations?
Date: 11/07/12 11:09 Re: T&P #316 Debut (Texas State Railroad) Author: elueck All of the locomotives will ultimately be painted for one of their common carrier owners.
#300 will come back from its annual in February as Tremont and Gulf #28 (its only common carrier owner) #400 will come back as Magma Arizona #7 (its last common carrier owner) Date: 11/07/12 11:31 Re: T&P #316 Debut (Texas State Railroad) Author: Txhighballer El_Duderino Wrote:

From what I am told, that will be early next year, subject to the vagaries of when they can finish her.

They have a sense of humor.
