📣 PHOTO CHARTER ANNOUNCEMENT: RETURN of the MOVIE TRAIN! March 29, 2026 📣

In partnership with ‪@Railtown1897SHP‬, Dynamo Productions is excited to invite you to Jamestown, California, for a one-of-a-kind photo charter celebrating the return of Sierra Railway No. 3. For the first time in over thirty years, this historic 4-6-0, a Rogers Locomotive and Machine Works product of 1891, will pull a freight train!

The locomotive will appear as it did in movies, with a balloon stack, box headlight, wood load on the tender, and a number plate temporarily painted black with aluminum silver. Period scenes will be staged between Jamestown and Rock Siding. We can’t wait to share this historic return with you and capture a piece of Sierra Railway history in action!

Our photo charters usually offer a glimpse into the past — but perhaps our latest was a glimpse into the future? Dynamo Productions was honored to host a fantastic night photo session this past Saturday with the ‪@AmericanSteamRailroad‬ as part of their massively successful 80th Birthday Open House! Special thanks to our attendees, actors, ASR’s staff and members, Grayson Littleton and family for providing the steam traction engine, ‪@midwestrailway‬ for hosting, and ‪@lynchpincreative‬ for providing the night’s smoke. Soon, we’ll be back when No. 250 is making its own steam again! 🇺🇸💨

This Reading T-1 will be dressed to the nines on October 11 for its starring appearance at Locomotive No. 250’s 80th Birthday Open House — and our NIGHT PHOTO SESSION! Tickets on sale now via ‪@AmericanSteamRailroad‬: www.americansteamrailroad.org/shop/p/night-photo-2…

The front “American Freedom Train” nameplate blank is out of storage and being prepped for welding; the bracket for the headlight eagle is taking shape; and the flying numberboards have taken their rightful place atop the boiler. More is still to come in the way of paint, lettering, smoke machines and other accessories to make the locomotive look its best. Join us this October 11 for your first controlled opportunity to photograph No. 250 at night! 🇺🇸

Ticket sales for the Boston & Maine 1397 Strasburg Steam Photo Charter end AUGUST 29! Why the early cutoff? A $45,000 cosmetic overhaul — and ticket fares are what pay for it. The sooner you buy, the closer we’ll get to making the charter a reality this November: www.ticketleap.events/tickets/dynamo-productions/b…
