Hawaiian Railway - Operating Locomotives

Operating Locomotives

Three vintage diesels have been restored to operation for excursion trains, and several steam locomotives have been cosmetically restored. The U.S. Navy in Oahu donated three diesels and the U. S. Army donated one locomotive in the 1970s. Only two of the Navy locomotives are operational.

Operating diesels include:

  • #423, An ex-USNX Whitcomb 45-Ton switcher.
  • #302, An ex-USNX Whitcomb 45-Ton switcher.
  • #7750, An ex-US Army GE 25-Ton switcher.

Famous quotes containing the words operating and/or locomotives:

    ... the modern drama, operating through the double channel of dramatist and interpreter, affecting as it does both mind and heart, is the strongest force in developing social discontent, swelling the powerful tide of unrest that sweeps onward and over the dam of ignorance, prejudice, and superstition.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    The flower-fed buffaloes of the spring
    In the days of long ago,
    Ranged where the locomotives sing
    And the prairie flowers lie low:—
    Vachel Lindsay (1879–1931)
