The Polson #2 steam engine built in 1912 pulls out of the station pulling some passenger cars behind it. The whistle is quite loud and it blows a few times as it crosses a couple of roads as it moves into the distance. Crossing bells and urban traffic can be heard as well as people watching the train.
