i work in the shop these units are stored at now. My boss and i had to check out the electrical cabinets of the 6936. I'm going to bug the museum to hire me to rewire the 6936
Great camera work Nick . It requires a lot of careful maintenance to transport these pieces of history over the long distances they have to travel. Thanks Nick
Sad to see 3985 in such a pitiful state. Glad she's going to new loving owners. And 5511 will finally get a chance to shine. She's been a hangar queen since retirement.
@@KreativeKng You're thinking about the tender, not the locomotive. 3985 went east with 4014's tender because the Big Boy is currently using 3985s tender. 3985 is going to get its original tender back when it returns to service, so 4014s tender will have to be rebuilt and converted for oil burning. Once it's rebuilt, the tender will go back to to Cheyenne, and be reunited with 4014. 3985s tender will then go to Illinois and be reunited with the Challenger. 3985 is no longer owned by the railroad, so it's not going back to Cheyenne after restoration. That's why the locomotives were donated, so they could be restored to run again.

That’s not true. UP 3985, 5511, and 6936 will be restored to operation by Railroading Heritage of Midwest America. Do research before you express your uninformed opinion. Smh
I hope you can chase it all the way! Fantastic footage so far!
That,6936 is a very special engine,,and I can't imagine why they're getting rid of it,, The challenger the 5511,

Great coverage!
Amazing footage Thanks Nick......

Well done video!!

I wonder if UP will reclaim the 4014's tender once it's restored.
That will happen as they will do a tender swap once the tender is converted to oil. 3985 will reclaim her original tender by then.
Hopefully the challenger gets a new whistle too
👏VERY Nice Nick‼️

Fantastic video my friend like 14
I will miss 3985 and 6936

Not new owners, 3985 will go back to UP once restored to operation
@@KreativeKng They were donated to the museum.

@@KreativeKng not true. However, the donation agreement does give UP the option to reclaim the equipment upon reimbursing the costs.
Looks like another locomotive took the lead spot.
Those units are in the shop i work at...
We left Co Bluffs after 8 pm last night.
It had not arrived.
Huge disappointment.
It’s funny that 3985 stool 4014’s tender
The plan is for 4014 and 3985 to exchange tenders once the 4014 tender conversion is complete.
Deberían poner también la 3977 en estado de marcha
No es necesario cuando se está restaurando 3985. No se puede volver a poner todo en funcionamiento.

@@davidng2336 aún así merece la pena, así cubrirían varias partes más del país en los tours
Nick...how often do they have to lube?
Where are all of these coming from?
Cheyenne, WY
Wow very nice with your video
I also do content like that
Ow, man i knew it! Its really the end of 3985............

@@chooch1764 I think he’s saying it’s the end of 3985's career with UP.
@@davidng2336 This person obviously didn’t make that clear. Besides, as long as it’s running, that’s what really matters.
@@chooch1764 people foam over everything. We either deal with it or leave it alone. Me especially, because I hate confrontation.
@@chooch1764dream on, this society does not have the funds to do it.
