Jul 12, 2006 · re: fec 148 Sam Freeman (long associated with Black River & Western) bought 148 from US Sugar Co (Clewiston, Fla) in 1969 and had it moved to BR&W in New Jersey. 148 first operated in NJ in 1970; it ran in 1971 and early 72 at BR&W.

Jan 23, 2025 · As an alternate to FEC 148, perhaps sister 4-6-2 # 113 might make a very good alternative for the Keys. For the following reasons, based on Stephen S. Syfrett's info on the ACL 1504 thread: 1. She is currently in pieces at the Gold Coast Railroad Museum thus quite a bit easier to move. 2. Apparently Gold Coast has no plans to restore her. 3.

Mar 8, 2025 · VERY interesting photo! Especially with the train shed involved. I think that number 204 may be a bit more than an 0-6-0. Maybe a Mogul or 2-8-0, but that is strictly a guess on my part. Since U.S. Sugar never renumbered the 113, 148 or 153 from their FEC numbers, the idea that 112 is another former FEC 4-6-2 is a good one.

Dec 5, 2024 · Just a little speculation on my part here, but perhaps it was among the early high-level discussions between U.S. Sugar leadership & Scott that given the proximity with CSX, it is not a far leap to conclude some of the management may have had hopes or dreams of some movements on CSX at a future date.

Mar 8, 2025 · BC&G/Q&E #4, CPR 972, RDG 2102, FEC 148, CPR 1238-1278-1286, NKP 759 (jes' passin' thru), probably some others I'm forgetting. The CNJ #4 steam wrecker now at Steamtown was based there; I have a shot of it on the ground in front of the coal dock in 1970.

Feb 22, 2025 · I'm trying to trace the history of the FEC 148, and I get that she did a stint on the BRW and the Valley Railroad, then ended up in Michigan, then Colorado for a failed tourist operation that never got off the ground. Either I'm searching for the wrong terms or I …
