MRYM 6789 at Nelson's Crossing (boarding point)
Title:  MRYM 6789 at Nelson's Crossing (boarding point)
Description:  Former CN FPA-4 #6789 was the unit for an excursion train at the Monticello, IL Railway Museum on 6-15-2019. This view shows the engine's front end, and passengers waiting to board the various cars. The depot at the left, Nelson's Crossing, has the ticket office, gift shop, restrooms, and other things. The semaphore signal is in the vertical position, indicating clear, but the train won't leave until the conductor gives the okay. I had not noticed the building on the right, labeled "Kuelbs", before this trip.

MRYM 6789, builder's plate
Title:  MRYM 6789, builder's plate
Description:  Former CN FPA-4 #6789 was the unit for an excursion train at the Monticello, IL Railway Museum on 6-15-2019. This view shows the builder's plate, moved to a panel underneath the engineer's window. Sorry, I was too far away to get enough detail for the serial number or other stamped or embossed information on the plate itself. Note the steps leading up to the cab, compared to those on other makes of power.

MRYM 6789, interior view, engineer's controls
Title:  MRYM 6789, interior view, engineer's controls
Description:  Former CN FPA-4 #6789 was the unit for an excursion train at the Monticello, IL Railway Museum on 6-15-2019. This view shows the engineer's controls. There are four gauges in front of him, other controls on the control stand to his left, and a handset, looking like the receiver part of a telephone, at his right. Interestingly, the handset has the letters "D&RGW" embossed on it! The engineer graciously allowed me to come into the cab and I am grateful beyond words for the opportunity. Be assured, my hands touched nothing except the handrails and my camera during the time I was in the cab chatting with the crew. They have great people at the Monticello Railway Museum!

MRYM 6789 in action!
Title:  MRYM 6789 in action!
Description:  Former CN FPA-4 #6789 was the unit for an excursion train at the Monticello, IL Railway Museum on 6-15-2109. This view shows the clear (relatively) smoke from the exhaust stack as 6789 leads the excursion train to downtown Monticello. I leaned out the caboose cupola window to get this shot and probably broke every safety rule in the book!

CN 6789 & WAB 1189 in the TRRA yard.
Title:  CN 6789 & WAB 1189 in the TRRA yard.
Description:  Caught this pair of cab units by accident......they will be on the move, per this email from Tom Binger, with this info: This movement is subject to delay or change based on railroad procedures and schedules, but both locomotives were approved for the journey by the NS and FRA recently. The Wabash unit is carrying reporting marks of RPCA 1189 in temporary appliques on both sides of the locomotive. Following their display in Spencer at the end of May and beginning of June (May 29-June 1), the CN 6789 will be returned to Monticello while the Wabash 1189 goes to a shop in the east for some truck and electrical work. This is as close as I casn get with my camera...hopefully someone else has a longer reach.
