Wow, a truly great video, very interesting. Will and KAT, you all are the Best… Thank you.

Hey Leapin Larry! So happy and thankful you saw the video! Stay tuned for more in the future. Happy Railroading 🚂!

Union station is one of my most beloved places in the world, I’m glad you enjoyed your visit!
For some context on the NKP unit, it is indeed a working loco. The livery is not historically accurate tho, it never worked on the NKP. It’s actually Utah Railway 306, which worked out of Provo until it retired in the 80’s. It was then bought by the Oregon rail heritage center, and lived there up until a few years ago when it was given to Union station and returned to Utah. It’s due to be repainted into the previous Utah railway livery soon, and should look a lot more accurate!

One locomotive that wasn’t present in the video was the Western Pacific GP35 3002 that was just recently restored. It was donated to the museum by the previous owner, the Arkansas Midland Railroad.

Great video! That was Doyle McCormick's NKP rs unit. I think that Santa Fe locomotive was an ALCo RSD15 Alligator. Thanks for sharing your visit. I hope to get out there someday. -Ricky

[@will2926]

Thank you and happy railroading!🚂

[@carlcewinski6245]

Wonderful tour! This might be a "must see" stop after the LCCA convention before returning back to TN.

[@will2926]

Absolutely! Were you able to make the trip out there following the LCCA convention?

[@carlcewinski6245]

LCCA store and member trading store depleted my wallet. A fun convention though!

The toilets in the old caboose were cast iron, the poop and pea fell out o. The road bed.

Come back July 20th when the Big Boy will be in town that station will be popping

[@will2926]

I totally would however, I'll be busy with work. Big boy was incredible in 2019. I'm so happy we made a trip out there to see the 150th! Happy Railroading 🚂!

[@ronaldbrooks5982]

Scaletrains was the first to have the Turbine In HO.

[@Snoapyfluff]

UP 833 still has her whistle attached to it and theres a recording of 836 and 833 on possibly one of the last doubleheaders on the UP for passenger service recorded by Howard fogg I'm wondering what 833s whistle would sound like maybe someday 844 could wear it

[@DouggieFresh50]

I was there

[@will2926]

Its definitely a cool place to visit🚂

[@DouggieFresh50]

Yep it is I wish the golden spike historic site could connect to Union station as a tourist railroad

[@Phorhesa]

There are ex ATSF locos there.

[@will2926]

We found them, at first I was a little shocked to not see any however, they were tucked away. Happy Railroading 🚂!

[@jameslanders4819]

Will you be chasing the big boy this summer?

[@will2926]

Unfortunately we will not be able to chase the big boy this time. Hopefully next time! Happy Railroading!

[@423skatkat]

Scaletrains make that turbine in HO

[@Jeisr4207-bc5ui]

I’m pretty sure MTH made one in HO scale

[@will2926]

I hope Lionel makes this turbine in the future🤞🚂
