None of them seemed monumental, and several were already checked off the list attached with a magnet to the tender. image/jpeg, 950x1133 (24bit) WishList.jpg 96365 bytes |

St. Louis, our standing train, waiting on a siding for clearance, was hit head-on by another train that split a snow-packed switch.

From: "Ted Lemen" hi_jeanx -AT- yahoo -DOT- com Date: Wed Feb 2 22:02:22 2011 Subject: A spare set up tires came along with the Southern 401 when it was loaded up in January 1966 in Margerum AL for movement to Decatur IL for unloading. Without a lift truck to pick them up, Guy Bald, superintendent of the Alabama Asphaltic Limestone Co. facility dragged them out of the shed they were stored in so they could be loaded on the flat with 401's tender. One tire is visible on the ground after extraction, with another one being ripped out through the side of the shed. image/jpeg, 1265x851 (24bit) 40107.jpg 115880 bytes |

From: "Ted Lemen" hi_jeanx -AT- yahoo -DOT- com Date: Sun Sep 12 16:35:43 2010 Subject: Two of the heroes of the Southern Railway 2-8-0 No. 401 are Kent McClure (left) and Dave Marshall. When I asked Dave how the engine ran when he opened the throttle for the first time, he said it was like a Swiss watch, meaning it glided along with track without a sound. No clanking rods like regular engines. image/jpeg, 859x1257 (24bit) KentAndDave.jpg 138908 bytes |

From: "Ted Lemen" hi_jeanx -AT- yahoo -DOT- com Date: Sun Aug 29 22:16:52 2010 Subject: Just after leaving Louisville KY en route E. St. Louis on Southern's line across Southern Indiana in January,1968--while we waited in a siding for a clear track, another freight at low speed split an iced switch and hit the front loco on our consist, which included an F unit just ahead of our loaded locomotive. It was hours before the tracks were cleared of seven or eight cars that had toppled off the track when the jolt came. Had it been at high speed, the wreck might have altered the weekend of September 18-19, 2010, which the Monticello Railway Museum has now posted on its website as the official debut weekend for Southern Railway No. 401. image/jpeg, 1277x844 (24bit) 401LoadedInWreck.jpg 146995 bytes |
