The Pere Marquette 1225 was built in 1941 by the Lima Locomotive Works and later donated to Michigan State University in 1957.

Ever hear of a University with its own steam engine?

Over the road truckers made by Colani, the same designer that gave us the Stingray above.

I thought I had a picture on my phone but the little museum in Lima has a locomotive in it.

So, the individual that won the Armed Services battle on Forged in Fire is a huge car guy and belongs to a few facebook groups I belong to. He also resides in North Carolina.

He does good work.

Texas Tech had one when I was working on my BSME in the early 1980's.  Our thermodynamics class had an assignment related to it, so we got to crawl all over it.

It has since taken up residence at the National Ranching Heritage Center, so it's still part of the University. 

Oh, and that's a 6666 (pronounced "four sixes") ranch building in the background, for any Yellowstone fans.

You'll need to log in to post.
