You live in Staunton? Drop by Henry's Rabbit Ranch and say hi to Rich for me. I'm also a Route 66 roadie with my '64 Chevy. Great catch pacing the Texas Eagle. The Eagle passes by my house in Austin, TX.
Super video as always. I believe it has been done before but not like this lol. Looks like you had to do some speeding to keep up with him. I though about doing it before but the Sunset Route doesn't have quiet enough open space to get a good one such as this! 5/5 and fav!
what I need to do next time i'm in IL is take a whole bunch of time off and save some money and do 3 days from Chadwick to Rochelle to Chillicothe to Edelstein, to Mazon IL (70 MPH+ trackspeed!!!) and back down to Staunton...
Try doin' that with the Southwest Chief where it's speeds reach 90!
