Amtrak 231, an EMD F40PHR built in 1977, had its first solo run down a section of the Illinois Railway Museum mainline the evening of August 13th. This was after repairing/replacing portions of the cables going to the #1 and #2 traction motors over the weekend. The #4 motor will need much more extensive replacement of those cables at a later date and was cutout. After some additional mechanical work being completed on the engine and accessory equipment, 231 was out for a test trip late Wednesday

More switching madness. Video taken in 2020. The 3100 was used to do a large amount of switching around the museum. A GoPro Hero 7 Black was placed in various locations on the 3100 and on cars to capture different various viewpoints that many may have never seen before. This is a long video but very interesting. | Southern California Railway Museum Diesel Shop
