I climbed on UP4141 when it was in the yard and thought the Secret Service might come out from nowhere and grab me but in the end, it was just another damned locomotive.
Rumor has it that UP is in the midst of making another heritage unit. Now i have no idea if this IS true, BUT I heard that it is a breast cancer heritage unit. It's going to have shades of pink on it with the ribbon on it.
Holy smokes, what an incredible lashup... I'm not too thrilled with the GWB unit, but the the Katy & MoPac heritage units are definitely worth turning out for... Sure wish CSX had a heritage fleet, but sadly, I'm afraid that corporate management would rather just forget how their company came to be, but I digress. A most excellent catch, Kevin. Fav'd and Shared with my Friends list.
@gaycowboy31 Thank you, buddy! It was sure a surprise. It's a shame the George Bush locomotive stands still in North Little Rock Arkansas and is only on display now.
AWESOME !!!! Great Video Kevin, I would sure keep this on as a " Front Page Video" on My Channel if this were Me. I really enjoyed this Video. You have a good channel with lots of interesting stuff, good Work.
WOW!!!! They named a locomotive after George Bush! I'm speechless! And its UP too, I'm even more speechless!!!! These railway companies must have alot of extra time to start putting President names on their selective locomotive(s)! stock!
@CQDX018 In College Station at Texas A&M there's the George Bush Sr. Museum. This engine usually runs from Houston to Fort Worth and passes the Campus there in College Station. The President rode the engine for a short distance I think or at least toured it in College Station. (correct me if i'm wrong)
@kaastle Ah, which engines? The 4141 has been tied and shut (out of service) at North Little Rock forever for a blown traction motor. I think back in the day I may have seen those train symbols your talking about from Houston to Fort Worth and when it was displayed. Cool to know! Thanks!
this its the trio i see after 4141 was unveiled here in college station texas home of the presidential library , they maybe never be togheteragain i guess great great catch ! 5 * and favorite!
Great video, CQDX018! Keep up the good work! I bet quite a few people will be putting comments on this and other videos showing the UP 4141, or "Bush unit," because of their hatred for the 43rd President Bush, the younger one. For anyone who doesn't know, this was made in honor of the 41ST President George Bush, the older one.
they also have this units on shows on bryan and college station tx, especialy the beatiful 4141, since they have gorge bush library here in college station, i be uploding some pics of them sonn , by the way great catch!
I'm just kidding, :P, LOL! Nice catch on not one, but THREE UP superstars, much better than that yellow stuff! Great job! That's a monsterous K5LLA! NS needs to do units like this.
the reason he got his own unit is this. College station, tx is home to the George H.W. Bush presidential library. in honor of his library, the union pacific painted the 4141 for the occasion. he actually has been on that engine and has rode it on the main track (either Navasota or Bryan Sub). so yeah, there is a reason, albeit it dumb
thetrainman407: Why do you allow your mindless hatred for George W. Bush to cloud your "thinking"? Geeeeeeeeeeeze! You can't even enjoy a harmless train video without spewing hate. It's only a locomotive! Besides, the locomotive number 4141 applies to his dad (the 41st president). Oh, I forgot: you hate him, too! You must be a lot of fun to pal around with.
one of the generals command cars is there.the Dwight d eisenhower is now on display indoors at the museum along with one of the eight surviving union pacific big boys
Man you guys crack me up. I work for UP at the Diesel shop in Houston the 4141 comes through the shop all the time. I see it all the time and you guys chase them down!!! Just funny to me I guess. I've worked on the 4141 a quite a few times even taken a nap on it!!
I'm surprised there's a loco named for G Bush, I thought he was anti-rail? Interesting locos all the same. There is another loco numbered 4141, it's a steam engine, and it works on English preserved railways, I came to this vid because of it!
Oh it was THAT Mr Bush! I thought it was the current one! The Railways here (in UK) had a lot of difficulty getting Mrs Thatcher to use them, they did get her to name an engine, but the one time she actually used a scheduled train her entourage made them delay it by half hour to suit her convenience.
You've got to understand George H(erbert) W(alker) Bush was the 41st president and George W. Bush is the Current 43rd president. Bush was called Poppy Bush, Bush The Elder, Papa Bush and Bush 41. to keep from confusing the current George W. Bush.
Thanks, but it seems to be worse than Henry VIII and his 6 wives!
We had at least one engine here named for an American President, it was an A4 class Pacific no 60008 which bore the name 'Dwight D Eisenhower'. This one of of the 'Mallard' class. I'm not sure if the engine is still in existence. I'm sure someone will pop up and tell us!
The A4 "Eisenhower" still exists (static display) and is in the museum at Green Bay, Wisconsin, carefully preserved under cover. I believe it's also accompanied by one or more of the General's "command cars".
I've got the Rio Grande 3 times. 1. Pueblo, Colorado. 2. Leading a special in STL. 3. 3rd unit on a mixed at STL.
