IRM Diesel Days 2023 Day 1: 8/11/23

It's finally here!

Diesel Days 2023 is finally here and this year, IRM pulled out all the stops. Not only was this the first year for some of their recent additions to partake in the event, but the museum brought out several of their other diesels to be put on display for the event, some of which haven't seen the light of day in years! Ranging from Milwaukee Road 5056, Grand Trunk Western 1951, TP&W 400, and so much more! But we can't forget about the engines pulling the trains today, as this is only day one! So sit back and enjoy some of IRM's finest traverse the rails of the museum for the first installment of this year's Diesel Days Trilogy. Enjoy!
