1225, after moving down the stub end track to load it's passengers, breaths steam and smoke into the extremely cold morning air.

After leaving the yard and running a few miles north, 1225 picks up speed as she aproaches the first crossing we caught her at.

Perhaps my favorite shot I ever took, 1225 tunders by in a cadence of smoke, steam, and power. It helped that there was snow on the ground, it only added to the awesomeness of the chase.

Notice how once they clear the crossings they stop making all that smoke. They must do it just so us railfans can get nice shots. Thanks 1225 crew.

Shrouded in steam, 1225 simmers at the fair grounds after a sucessful run.

The TSBY 2681, a high hood GP35, followed the train up and would pull it back to Owosso.
