At 3:30 it looks like a mom and kids riding the foot plate between tender and loco. How do you get that arranged. Like the end of train with a caboose, other with red coach. Do they have any other railroad cars other then the sight-seeing type coaches?
to ride the footplate, you just have to ask the Conductors nicely at the Main street station, wait patently for a certain locomotive(number 1 or 2), they will let you onboard unless they fill water
@ATSF7 good! i always wanted to ride the baldwins in the cab, on 3 you only see the speedometer, on 4 you WERE too far to hear stack talk and on 5 you cannot see below the pressure gauge. when will they install the seats on the forneys?
@switchstand They have four types of cars. One is a passenger-carrying freight train pulled by #3 in this vid. There is also a blue and white striped train pulled by #4. The third is the sight-seeing coaches you mentioned, pulled by #2, and the fourth is a green and white striped trainset not seen here. There is also a caboose behind #3, as well as the Lilly Belle Presidential Car seen here behind #4.

@giladmarkman While I was In Disneyland I heard that #4 will be open for a cabride on the Baldwin also to show how those old Baldwins are run.
