Eastbound ASV Passenger Train - ATSF 3415 |
| Description: |
Santa Fe 3415 rolls the Abilene and Smoky Valley Railroad's 2 P.M. train in from Abilene right on time at a blazing 10 MPH. The 91 year old steamer is a 4-6-2 Pacific Type and was built in June 1919 by Baldwin, and carries the Builders Number of 51861. The 3415 frequented the Santa Fe between Kansas City and La Junta, CO in its day, and operated at speeds of up to 100 MPH. She was retired in 1955 and was placed on display in Eisenhower Park in Abilene, KS April, 1996 when it was moved to the ASV. Restoration started in 2005 and was completed in early 2009. The engine runs about once a month. Otherwise, the ASV 4, an ALCO S1 runs the train. |

Looks Like the 1940s |
| Description: |
The rear end brakeman takes the markers off the caboose as the train rolls to a stop at the old Rock Island Depot site in Enterprise. This could almost pass for a day in the 1940s. |

Santa Fe 3415 |
| Description: |
One slick looking engine. The ASV Volunteers did a fantastic job restoring the engine with the limited resources and shop space they had. Excellent job indeed. |

Westbound ASV Passenger Train |
| Description: |
Running tender first, the Santa Fe 4-6-2 heads back towards Abilene with this afternoon's train. A lot of people don't like seeing steam engines run tender first, when in reality steamers ran backwards quite a bit on branch line operations when there was no turning facility at the end of the route. The train shown isn't a bad representation for a mixed freight of days gone by. |

Westbound ASV Passenger Train |
| Description: |
Since the train is running only 10 MPH, I figured I'd attempt a pan shot to get that nice balls out hauling ass effect. Hard to believe that this thing used to run 90 MPH faster than this on a regular basis. |

ATSF 3415 Back in the Shop |
| Description: |
Santa Fe 3415 begins to cool down in the shop after today's runs. The no diesel locomotives allowed sign is a nice touch. Although the diesel that shoved it into the barn isn't much to sneeze at--a 1945 ALCO S1. |

51861 |
| Description: |
Santa Fe 3415 carries Baldwin Locomotive Works Builders Number 51861 on her builders plate. The engine only carries one plate these days, but hopefully they can come up with another. I was told that she would get a bath at some point to make that glossy black paint shine, but for now this workhorse quietly cools down in her sauna-like enginehouse after a day of earning an honest living again. |

Eastbound ASV Passenger Train |
| Description: |
The Abilene & Smoky Valley Railway 11:00 A.M. train heads towards Enterprise with ATSF 3415 stomping out of town way with her authentic Santa Fe 6 Chime Steam Whistle blowing for the crossing. You might also notice that after 2 years of running, she finally has a set of numberboards atop the boiler, as she did when working for the Santa Fe. |
