1975-1976 American Freedom Train
Now it is turning into rust.
The 1975-1976 American Freedom Train. More specifically, the first of three steam locomotives that pulled the train during the two years that it crisscrossed the lower 48 states during the American Bicentennial Celebration of 1976. This locomotive being the former Reading Company 4-8-4 #2101.
I would like see Michael J. Ward, CEO at CSX Transportation, get involved with a restoration project to safe this Freedom Train.
