TriStateRailwayHistorialSociety

In this shorter episode, Vice President Kevin Phalon and Treasurer Richie King, (both under 25 years old) join us to discuss the Tri-State Railway Historical Society’s purchase of Morristown & Erie 19, an ALCO C424 built in 1964.  They tell us how this was made possible, why the restoration can be achieved for just $5000, and what the future holds for the locomotive.

Special thanks to Liberty Historic Railway for contributing to the purchase of the locomotive.  To learn about how you can contribute, visit their campaign or their website at TriStateRails.org.
