Porque sempre tem uma locomotiva diesel acoplada à vapor? ======= Why does it always have a diesel engine coupled to the steam?

[trainmaster844]

@gibiliz - The trip is running as an Amtrak "Special" excursion and the diesel helps provide Head End Power for the coaches (For such things as lights and Air Conditioning) and to provide assistance to 4449 if she needs it.

Hope this info helps! :)

@trainmaster844 Ok!, Nice!

-Thanks :)

This probably has been answered before, but are you hand holding the camera or have a mini tripod set up in your car somewhere?

Grain mills and elevators are great for creating echoes.
