Trivia

 * The locomotive in this film is Nickel Plate Road (NKP) H-6-o #587.
 * It once wore a cracked whistle from 1988-1989. It even wore it when it was doing excursions with other well-known locomotives including Norfolk & Western Railway 611 and 1218.
 * The 587 in this film wore a 5-chime instead of the cracked whistle because the crew of the 587 fixed the locomotive's whistle after the 1989 Norfolk Southern Steam Program season.
