During the Blizzard of ’96, Milwaukee Road 261 put on quite a show on Steamtown’s former DL&W main line. We’ll see towering clouds of thick white/black/gray smoke as 261 tackles rails and weather. It is 10 degrees out as the 261 heads up the steep grade. Her wheels slip as she tries to grip the icy cold rails. When she gets going, we see steam and smoke as she makes the grade.<br><br>Rock steady tripod shots and great stereo sound! As a bonus, we get to see some 1995 Fall Weekend runs! Color, Stereo Sound. No narration.

    There is absolutely nothing like watching our most beloved Midwestern 4-8-4 in the frigid winter weather. This is another classic MLMP program you do not want to miss seeing before you leave this earth! 🙂

    This DVD showcases the 261’s winter photo specials during the winter of 1996 while it was staying at Steamtown U.S.A. This video also involves cameo appearances by Steamtown’s CPR 2317.

    In Addition to MLMP, Goodheart Productions were there as well for it’s own Version of This nearly 25 year old event. Even though a ton of these scenes in the Scranton Pennsylvania area deep in the Poconos will never be repeated again and again most likely due to the fact that 2317 is still in pieces since the conclusion of the Museum’s 2010 season, and also for 261 as well as the other present day Mainline steam giants Due to one Of Amtrak’s Worst Presidents creating a No Steam Giants Policy.
