Southern 401 and More at Monticello Railway Museum - Steam and Streamliner Weekend - May 25, 2025

Hey y'all! Today's video is all about the Monticello Railway Museum in Monticello Illinois. This memorial day weekend, steam engine Southern 401 and F7 diesel Wabash 1189 pulled trains at the museum all day long! I focused on 401, but 1189 is also featured, as well as various things all over the museum. This weekend, the two trains each travelled on different parts of the line, with 1189 going north to White Heath, and 401 going south to downtown Monticello. Hope you enjoy the video, and remember to leave a like if you do!
