I've been inside one of these beauty's cab and it is amazing to imagine what it was like when they were still in regular use. To sit in the engineer's seat is so thrilling you can almost hear the whistle as she geos through a crossing.

we have to realize something were pretty much watching the big boy, except it's just missing 4 wheels.

Its a brand new paint job look at my june 27, 2008 video of the run to Laramie WY it was in primer paint and bare metal with no number 3985 on the cab

Now that is one cool train! That is a coal burning steam engine? Great Video 5*

[DeltaPhi79]

Um no. It's oil. They converted it to prevent grass fires from flying cinders of a coal fire.

[racing16]

Thanks DeltaRhi79 I did no that. So does it burn kerosene?

[DeltaPhi79]

Just regular fuel oil.

Hey Phil and racing..ask for UP foot plate videos, let us see how the engineers control these beautiful machines..

Great video, at the start up it sounds like another engine is running, was the Centennial acting as a helper?
