"Riding the Rails: The Pere Marquette 1225 Locomotive" will take place on
Wednesday, December 12, at 7 p.m.

 

The Pere Marquette 1225 was just one of dozens of "Berkshire"-type steam
locomotives. Most went to the scrapyards, but the 1225 survived as an
outdoor exhibit at Michigan State University. Come hear the amazing story of
the rebirth of the historic Berkshire locomotive and her becoming the
real-life model for the Polar Express. (Photo courtesy of Wikimedia
