NH 0673 |
| Description: |
Constructed by Alco in 1948 for the Illinois Terminal Railroad, this locomotive arrived at the museum from Vermont's Green Mountain Railroad in the 1990s. Restored to represent a New Haven RS-1 and used as part of the operating fleet on the Museum's yard excursions. Only one former NH RS-1 still exists today, 0670, privately owned and stored on the Central New England Railroad northeast of Danbury near Hartford. |

NH 0673 |
| Description: |
Front end view of the museum's RS-1, originally from the Illinois Terminal Company. Built by Alco in 1948, the unit first arrived in New England in the 1970s when it was acquired for service on the Green Mountain Railroad, operating the ex-Rutland tracks between Bellows Falls and Rutland, VT. The museum has restored it to represent a New Haven Railroad locomotive of the same type. The only original New Haven RS-1 that survives in the 21st century is the former 0670, privately owned on the Central New England Railroad. |
