RRHMA - UP DDA40X 6936 Running Again

I saw on another publication that they (https://rrhma.com/) test run 6936 running with both prime movers in Silvis on 8/19.

Wonderful. Now get her behind 4014.

More likely behind 3985 when they get her ready.

That would be a most interesting pairing.

Well, nobody will ever be able to say that RRHMA doesn’t know Jack, because they got the Big Jack up and running.

Hello, I am new here, and this is the first forum I found that I was interested in. While I am not replying to you directly, how do I start a conversation/post?

Welcome friend!

Navigate back out to the main screen with the title at the top.

In this case “Steam and Preservation”.

On the upper right there will be a big red rectangular button that says “Create A New Discussion Topic”.

Click on that and you are on your way!

I’m still beside myself with joy that all these big locomotives are being restored to operation not too far from where I live. I’ve been ramping up my Illinois trips more often in recent years for a lot of train-related reasons (Ok mostly CNW 7009 [(-D] ) and I’m definitely gonna enjoy seeing 6936 and the big steam run when their day arrives. Plus the QCs are fun to explore in general!
