Yep what a priceless video.

BTW why is there a genesis on that train?

[BNSF9192]

I agree and the Amtrak P42DC was on there because they needed it as a electric source for the cars.

[OakViewFilms]

Oh, you mean like head end power?

[BNSF9192]

Yes and also for safety reasons if the SP 4449 was to have mechanical issues.

4449 wasn't wasting any time this trip! They werer doing just as quick through Riverside where I saw it! I sure hope 4449 returns someday! 4449 really layed on the whistle through DG!

[BNSF9192]

Yeah, they were moving quick. I also hope that it will return so I can make a trip and possibly go on a chase. Thanks for the comment.

[EJE665]

I hope it comes bacl\k. I saw it in Riverside, Chicago, Michigan City, Owosso, Porter and Franklin Park. I even went into the cab. 4449 was quite addicting!

[BNSF9192]

Very nice! Yes, it was quite addicting, but sadly I couldn't get out to catch it again.

[trainmaster55]

AWESOME! SHE WAS FLYING!
