576 Stretches Her Legs for the FIRST Time in 60 Years! | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Evan CihlarOGR Forum Member

The crew at the NSPS moved the 576 out of the shed she has been sheltered under for over 60 years. This is the first time she has moved over 100 feet since the restoration project has started.

Railroading in America Magazine and Industry Headlines would like to thank the Nashville Steam Preservation Society and AJ Joyce for their work in restoring the 576 and providing video (respectively). #stripehype!

Good video, I marveled at what was pulling it. I thought it would need something heavier.

Nice, but sure could have done without that "music".

The music is irritating, but at least it wasn't the obligatory harmonica and banjo, signifying the "antique" nature of steam engines, and trains, in general.

I was thinking "Draggin' the Line" would be a good soundtrack.

Or the photo of the women pulling the Timken demo loco, the four aces, 1111.
