@chevyalltheway06 Thanks. When was she converted?. I'll be the first to admit I'm not a detail man. During my six years on the C&TS I never could keep the K36/K37 thing straight -- well, I did know that the 463 wasn't either one of those.
I believe they were returning from some big event at the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, grand opening maybe. You might be able to Google that.
Gothpapa I did not mean for my first comment to sound mean or anything like that, I just did not know if I was hearing it right, and thought that the narrators usually don't mkae mistakes. So sorry if you thought my first comment was mean or disrespectful
Hey, relax there Thunderwhatever (;>). I was just joshin' with ya. I am perfectly capable of making those kinds of mistakes. I'm just not capable of admitting it.
@chevyalltheway06 I didn't realize it was converted that early! It was still just an infant.

The 3985 is a 4-6-6-4, not a 2-6-6-2.

I was born on 7/7/81, so I am trying to find a film or pic of a train that was taken the day I was born!

Well, Happy Birthday. Mine is 7/6, but not '81.

Did anybody notice the guy said 2-6-6-2 instead of 4-6-6-4 for the configeration of 3985
Thunderfucku2 3 years ago
