I’m not going to make it up there tomorrow, but I respect that and Thanks! I remember the first time seeing a Box car being delivered to a location in Berkeley as a kid and my Dad wanted us to see how the cars are delivered to the locations coasting alone too the stop. It’s a memory that is good to know about the future of Oldies! 😂👍💪❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸! Respect to all who know about the BayArea railways that were Giant! I’m not that old to tell about the trolly cars in the past, but the tracks are still there!
For anyone wondering, the reason why UP 1983 is with the 4014, it is because the unit originally with 4014 was a standard Dash-9, but during the event in Portola California, with the Western Pacific 0-6-0 #165, which is the only operation WP steam locomotive, and the 4014, the 1983 was brought up as a surprise for fans at that event. The unit was swapped with the Dash-9 originally with 4014.
If it allows it to run without a diesel on a lot of Union Pacifics Subdivisions, then it's a worthy tradeoff. Plus it helps in case of needed electricity.
loved the videos.. esp the part where they are doing maintainance
I’ll be heading to more and maybe Sunday
This was a really awesome video!
I’m gonna see it this fall maybe
Very nicely done.
Definitely eager to see these engines tomorrow! Nice vid!

Scrub forward to 4:31 for the start of Big Boy!!
Man I wish if today when I was there I wanted to see a capital corridor Amtrak meet THE KING OF THE RAILS!!!
Nice loco steam🎶👍❤️👍

I’ve been meaning to ask what is the car immediately after the big Boy, if not, all steam trains?
3 dynamos for a single steam Locomotive is actually kinda crazy ngl
they need the extra power for PTC beast of a loco
