Album Info:Or Ashwaubenon, if you want to get technical about it. You could walk to the Packers statement from here, probably in less time than it would take to see all the amazing treasures that they have here! I gave the forerunner of its collection its own album - President Eisenhower's command train, brought all the way here from England in WWII (see http://railfan3145.rrpicturearchives.net/archivethumbs.aspx?id=144943 ). But where else does a Union Pacific Big Boy sit second to another classic locomotive? Or, maybe the Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 will strike your fancy. There are a number of other rare steam engines on the grounds, as well as some neat diesel engines. There's even a train you can ride as well - it's not the longest route in Wisconsin, but their circle gives you some beautiful views of the Fox River. Come give it a visit yourself sometime, and after you do so, come again!

GN 11
Title:  GN 11
Description:  So, ironically, this engine never served on the Great Northern Railway! However, GN used to have other Alco S2s numbered 1-10, so this one was given the number 11 as a nod to them. It has recently been used in excursion service.

WC 1563
Title:  WC 1563
Description:  There are no pictures of the locomotive between 2015, when it was still in the old scheme, and 2021, when it had come over to the museum. I am thinking Canadian National may have repainted it specifically for the occasion of its donation. It was really looking faded before, so the new paint scheme looks very nice!
