4449 isn't coming East because of the NHRS convention in Washington this year. #3751 was canceled by BNSf due to increased in traffic on the Transcon. And UP doesn't care about a little Train Fest.
i'm at 1:50 in the miluakeeroad coach vestabule with the black shirt.
Also at 3:08 in the arizona car,right behind me you can see kleman09 who was riding 4449 with me on thursday and was helping with my onboard shots on the trip.
Watching the trains pass here with 759, 4449 and so forth, it makes me saddened that 765 gets no where near as much glory as 4449 does, there are so so so many shots of 4449 as opposed to 765 its insane. Makes me want to shoot 765 all the more..
I went to TrainFestival 2009 with my dad and we had a great time! My dad and I also saw the SP Daylight #4449 and she is the one who pulled the American Freedom Train since back in the 1970s! She is beautiful!
The whole event was a great time. Thanks for your expertise at capturing it. You did a good job of avoiding that stupid helicoptor that kept screwing up everyones sound recordings. I rode the 765 trip and it followed nearly the whole trip. I fondly remember the NKP 765 and all the others when they were in regular service, The only thing missing is the mars light, and they weren't so shiny in those days. In my opinion, the Lima built berks were the most beautiful engines ever built.
Thanks, HaloCE14, believe it or not I saw the 1975-1976 AFT tour in West Palm Beach when I was six (1976). From what I remember it was very impressive and was newly restored. I still have the original tour program book. I am happy to see it from time to time in our family photographs. I was happy with it in its original Daylight livery and again in 2002 when it was repainted in AFT livery. It is an amazing piece of Americana. Peace, DPLaneFilms
is this event worth a 8 1/2 hour drive? lol

Correction to ur info. The Little Raiver #110 is not the smallest Pacific, it is the smallest standard gauge pacific.
