Steam Excursions on the Railroad Mainline

Steam Excursions on the Railroad Mainline

Created on 3/12/18

Completed on 5/31/18

It’s been such a long time since we’ve been able to create a documentary.
In this railroad documentary, we discuss mainline steam excursions. Last year
in our production company’s history, we had three opportunities to see two
different steam locomotives on the mainline: Nickel Plate Road 765 and
SOO Line 1003 (Twice in 2017). Throughout the documentary, our very own
Andrew Mangalindan, along with our other crew members Branden Phillips,
Casey Walker, and Aaron Gonzales explain how special steam excursions
are and how these excursions can happen on the railroad mainline. We’re
excited to share this special railroad documentary featuring steam locomotives
on the mainline. Even though we only have video footage of SOO Line 1003,
Nickel Plate Road 765, and Frisco 1630, we will continue to try hard and find
more steam excursions with other steam locomotives. Listed below are steam
organizations and railroad museum websites and social media accounts so you
can find out future steam excursions. As always, sit back and enjoy this special
railroad documentary.
