Album Info:Or Ashwaubenon, if you want to get technical about it. You could walk to the Packers statement from here, probably in less time than it would take to see all the amazing treasures that they have here! I gave the forerunner of its collection its own album - President Eisenhower's command train, brought all the way here from England in WWII (see http://railfan3145.rrpicturearchives.net/archivethumbs.aspx?id=144943 ). But where else does a Union Pacific Big Boy sit second to another classic locomotive? Or, maybe the Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 will strike your fancy. There are a number of other rare steam engines on the grounds, as well as some neat diesel engines. There's even a train you can ride as well - it's not the longest route in Wisconsin, but their circle gives you some beautiful views of the Fox River. Come give it a visit yourself sometime, and after you do so, come again!

CRIP 2
Title:  CRIP 2
Description:  In June 1957, the engine was required by Union Pacific, who ran it on the City of Las Vegas route. UP was dissatisfied with it, though, and the Rock Island purchased it the next year.

CRIP 2
Title:  CRIP 2
Description:  Though the engine could go over 80 mph, its power was insufficient on steep grades - railroads out west that experimented with the model, such as UP and ATSF, needed helper engines on portions of the route.

CRIP 2
Title:  CRIP 2
Description:  Ultimately, this engine and its sister ran trains between Chicago and Joliet, but they were retired in 1966, at which time they went to museums. Railroads might not have liked them, but they do look cool!

CRIP 302
Title:  CRIP 302
Description:  The coaches were built with modified bus bodies. This was supposed to make them cheaper to produce, as the body could be put on an existing undercarriage. Unfortunately, the coach's shock absorbers failed at high speeds, leading to a bumpy ride.

Minneapolis and St. Louis D-538
Title:  Minneapolis and St. Louis D-538
Description:  The Minneapolis and St. Louis Railway existed from 1870 to 1960. It had tracks in Minnesota, South Dakota, Iowa, and Illinois. Like the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad, however, it never reached one of its cities (St. Louis), though it did have a passenger train (the North Star Limited) that ran there via the Wabash Railroad.

Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range #506
Title:  Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range #506
Description:  It's the doghouse! Newer engines, starting in the 1930s, were supposed to have a seat for the brakeman. On older models getting repairs, the new seat would often be a shed-like structure, like this one!
