Nice vid. As it is working it's way thru the rail yard, you can see the front drivers turning independently under the boiler.

4014 runs much cleaner since its oil conversion. Here is 4016 circa 1958 in service running on coal.

Which one is in Duluth ? I haven't been in there for many years and it's not on the website now, as they now have a book they want you to buy...
