I would search YouTube for WW&F videos - there are tons. Just make sure to give proper credit.

Hi Gavin,
There are a number of photographers taking great photos of #9. One of those is  WW&F member Kevin Madore, and you can find some of those linked in this thread:
https://forum.wwfry.org/index.php/topic,3848.msg48291.html#msg48291 (https://forum.wwfry.org/index.php/topic,3848.msg48291.html#msg48291)

See that thread for a link to his Flickr album, and you can send Kevin a Personal Message (PM) asking for his permission to use some of his photos for your project.

One way to send a PM is to click the "Send PM" link on the left side of a member profile, here:

Good morning!

For historical photos and videos, consider checking out online archives, libraries, or museums that specialize in the history of the number 9. Websites like Getty Images, Library of Congress, or even historical societies might have valuable resources.

For present-day content, platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, or stock photo websites could offer a wide range of visuals related to the number 9 in various contexts.

Good luck with your presentation, and I hope you find the perfect images and videos for your school project

If you have access to the back issues of the WW&F Newsletter, check out the first three pages of the March/April 2016 issue. There's a great article entitled, "The Story Behind Number 9’s Trip to Alna Center" by Jason Lamontagne. As a teaser, here's the first sentence: "On Saturday, December 5, 2015, our Locomotive Number 9 steamed to Alna Center, hauling a crowd of happy volunteers in W&Q coach 3. Number 9’s restoration lasted a little more than nine years and everyone involved was more than ready for this trip!" If you can't find this issue, PM me and I'll send you a text file.
